lyrics

It starts with you says the pot to the kettle

Now I don't really want to meddle

I see you've fallen off the track

And I've been down that road before

Practice what you preach

Is what you said to me

It's easy to say

And sometimes hard to see

I know where you're coming from

I just don't want to go back there again

It's so easy to fall prey

To the power of suggestion

The words they can unravel

The greatest of intentions

It's a dog eat dog world

That's what they like to say

I'm rattling off cliche after cliche

But I know you get my point

To thine own self be true

It's so easy to fall prey

To the voices in my head

If I believed what they told me

Then my spirit might be dead

It's so easy to fall prey

To the power of suggestion

The words they can unravel

The greatest of intentions
