Lyrics
[Verse 1]
History's been leaning on me, lately
I can feel the future breathing down my neck
And all the things I thought were true, when I was young and you
Were too, turned out to be broken, and I don't know what comes next
[Verse 2]
In a world that has decided
That it's going to lose it's mind
Be more kind, my friends
Try to be more kind
[Verse 3]
They've started raising walls around the world now
Like hackles raised upon a cornered cat, on the borders in our heads
Between the things that can and can't be said, we stopped talking
To each other, and there's something wrong with that
[Verse 4]
So, before you go out searching
Don't decide what you will find
Be more kind, my friends
Try to be more kind
[Verse 5]
You should know you're not alone
And trouble comes and trouble goes
How this ends, no one knows
So, hold on tight when the wind blows
[Verse 6]
The wind blew both of us to sand and sea
And where the dry lands stands is hard to say
As the current drags us by the shore, we can no longer say for sure
Who's drowning or if they can be saved
[Verse 7]
And when you're out there floundering like a lighthouse I will shine
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind
Like a beacon reaching out to you and yours, for me and mine
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind
[Verse 8]
In a world that has decided
That it's going to lose it's mind
Be more kind, my friends
Try to be more kind
