      @@AJD... ye. I've played piano for like 2 years and guitar for over 10 now. I've always said finding the correct things to play is much more important than finding the most difficult things to play. Creativity is harder to come by than motor skills. Playing skills are still very ver very important but at the top level of playing, creativity is king.

    Walking through the trees
    I never really know what's on your mind
    Is it ever me, or just someone you've left behind?
    Floating through a dream
    I never could make out the words you said
    Sentences are bouncing back and forth inside my head
    You don't have to leave
    You could just stay here with me
    Forget all the party police
    We can find comfort in debauchery
    Fighting through the fog
    I can't believe it rained all summer long
    When every day's a hurricane, you know there's something wrong
    I see you every day
    It's hard to figure out what happens next
    I cannot decipher conversation in your head
    You don't have to leave
    You could just stay here with me
    Forget all the party police
    We can find comfort in debauchery
    You don't have to leave
    You could just stay here with me
    Forget all the local police
    We can find comfort in biology
    We wrote our names on the overpass
    And I hope it lasts forever
    Don't have to-
    You don't have to-
    You don't have to leave
    You could just stay here with me
    Forget all the party police
    We could find comfort in debauchery
    You don't have to leave
    You could just stay here with me
    Forget all the local police, we could find-
    If you don't want to, you don't have to
