Practice


Fitting in
through living proof
positive and equal to
the truth
practicing puts
an energy to waste
that could be used to define your pace

you give your voice to nothing
and I smile along the way
put the big road style aside and
play those keys just right
memorised from birth
black and white

you, breathing easy now you're finally at the end
true, we don't speak to evil now we're finally playing
side by side

giving in
is immature
correction lost and visibly
self-assured
practice puts
your energy to waste and
all this sound has worn your pretty face

you give your voice to nothing
and I smile along the way
so put the big road style aside and
play those keys just right
memorised from birth
black and white

you, breathing in relief as we all tune in to the show
we wouldn't miss it for the world, you're loved and
you should know
"this one, anytime I say love if you wanna say love, uh, say it, and if you say it you might as well say it loud, and if you don't feel like sayin' it, don't say it, but if you feel it, certainly say it..."
