who is responsible?

and what does your brain tell you?
you tell me your mind does not work.

well, tell me your brain does not work
and i shall call you a liar
for look on how your hands do lift
the strands of hair poking at your eye
and you tell me your brain does not work?
see the way your lips do part
opening and closing like a lifeless fish
and you tell me your mind does not work?
then observe, for this one is sure,
how your heartbeats do carry on
now quickly as if catching a bus
pulling away as you run later and later
is that not by your brain or mind?

liar.
and a bad one at that.
who is responsible for that action
if not your brain
if not your mind?

now you admit your brain does work
and your mind does turn
after all you are breathing and living
though life is dull

so should i ask you what you already know?
that if your brain should work
your mind be responsible
for your hands' constant motion
your mouth's breathless running
and your heart's flighty racing...

very well then, tell me:
who is responsible for your brain?
