“The Rehearsal” is about compulsively practicing conversations in your head—what you’ll say, how you’ll say it, and replaying it until it all feels just right, even if you end up never saying a word.

THE REHEARSAL
©2025 Brian Hazard (ASCAP)

I deal in daydreams
I traffic in text
Endless predictions of
What you’ll say next

I pick my battles
And I take my licks
At the rehearsal
I rewrite the script

There’s something I have to get off my chest
But I don’t know how to say it best

Tape decks chew on old cassettes
Restless pacing wears the floorboards
Grasp at smoke and call it home
Shape my thoughts like molten chrome

Stories aching to be told
Every silence must be broken
But I bottled the eclipse
From my umbra to your lips

It’s a compulsion
A cognitive trap
At the rehearsal
I polish my act

I’m the sole architect of each pause
I preach my gospel to empty halls

Why not let the words find their own flow?
I can make it all up as I go

Improvisation
Is the skillful way
Trust when the time comes
I’ll know what to say

Let go of scenes
That may never exist
Live in the moment
And welcome the risk

Lyrics: 
Come find me 
I’m farther out than I’ve ever been so far
Out here I can really come apart 
Trying to search for the light in the dark 
A sliver of a pure heart 

Come find me 
I fell into the trembling unknown 
Spinning through, the mysteries unfold 
Shivering from the chill of the bitter cold 
Am I better for it? I don’t know. 

Will you come to the other side? 
Do not hide 
Feel it for the first time 
Yea, I am alright 

Come to the other side 
Do not hide 
Wait for the sun 
Moving out on the sky
