Be More Kind

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
 In a world that has decided
 That it's going to lose its mind
 Be more kind, my friends
 Try to be more kind
 ♪
 They've started raising walls around the world now
 Like hackles raised upon a cornered cat
 On the borders, in our heads
 Between things that can and can't be said
 We've stopped talking to each other
 And there's something wrong with that
 So before you go out searching
 Don't decide what you will find
 Be more kind, my friends
 Try to be more kind
 You should know you're not alone
 And that trouble comes, and trouble goes
 ♪
 How this ends, no one knows
 ♪
 So hold on tight when the wind blows
 ♪
 The wind blew both of us to sand and sea
 And where the dry land 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
 But 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 from me and mine
 Be more kind, my friends
 Try to be more kind
 In a world that has decided
 That it's going to lose its mind
 Be more kind, my friends
 Try to be more kind
