Amplified
Falling into deep despair
How did it end this way?
When did tomorrow turn into yesterday?
And when did we come to realise
We were naive and absurd
When did we find out we couldn't change the world?
Amplified
We were always told
Practice makes perfect
Take that splinter out of your eye
Why weren't we told
Practice makes permanent?
Mistakes they get amplified
Good times seem so fleeting
And bad times seem to last
We talk as if all we've got is the past
Convinced that there's no future
'Cos no-one gets out alive
So why not make the most of this borrowed time?
Amplified
We were always told
Practice makes perfect
Take that splinter out of your eye
Why weren't we told
Practice makes permanent?
Mistakes they get amplified
Celebrating ignorance
As victims are put on trial
And empty slogans keep you in denial
No backlash for the guilty
Who locked us in this cage
Of entrenched opinions that no-one wants to change
We were always told
Practice makes perfect
Take that splinter out of your eye
Why weren't we told
Practice makes permanent?
Mistakes they get amplified

Practice makes permanent?
Mistakes they get amplified
