I took the train to see you, stepped off the platform
maybe four or five years later than you asked me to
you came along at a time my life was changing
about a hundred times faster than I wanted to

All these visions of our goodbyes
live in here, in my mind, forever

I owed you a letter
so I'll give you a song
thank you for being a brother
even though the house we would live in is gone

The voice of God comes sometimes when I am listening
to the people who breathe music like it's oxygen
I see that in your eyes every time they're passing mine
but it's hard to let the words fly right in between them

All these visions of our goodbyes
live in here, in my mind, forever

I owed you a letter
so I'll give you a song
thank you for being a brother
even though the house we would live in is gone

The Anti-Diva: Though still not regarded as a music mecca, Indianapolis is spawning more and more acts that combine artistic boldness with commercial viability. Take Mab Lab, the well-regarded trip-hop-jazz-funk combo that ended its five-year, five-album run last fall. Or Blueprintmusic, an acoustic quintet now working on its third collection of progressive folk. Or the Undefeatable Beats, a sprawling music and dance collective that constructs hip-hop and soul jams on a bed of traditional African drum patterns.
