Well oh remember that day, average and gray, you came to me and then |
|
I heard a kindness like a memory |
|
I once felt on a passing wind |
|
Oh but the kindness |
|
I've known |
|
From street and stone they still resound your presence and animation |
|
No not negation or affirmation, but positivity and creation |
|
Oh but the kindness |
|
I've known |
|
Not destruction but creation in the waning hearts you mended |
|
But the spark of connection that fills the soul when simply you're befriended |
|
Oh but the kindness |
|
I've known |
|
As well I knew in such freedom grew also isolation |
|
Of the pain of knowing so very few who'ld not desire your captivation |
|
Oh but the kindness |
|
I've known |
|
Your love and true and pure desire tireless, endless and sad |
|
I wonder now would |
|
I be the same if |
|
I'd left what if |
|
I had Oh but the kindness |
|
I've known |
|
To discover to the world what |
|
I know of you and not unattainable song |
|
That would glorify your attributes like we've done all along |
|
There's a lot more to you than song and pedistals they cannot describe the torment you've been through |
|
And banishment cannot consumate the frustration and monotony we knew |
|
And song will never ever portray the wonder that you've known |
|
But lyric sticks here like a timeline and it's a mark to show we've gone |
|
Oh but the kindness |
|
I've known |
|
So I'll represent this kindness since all else is extoled and present how it does thrive |
|
Like the care and nourishment long forgot in infancy that kept us alive |
|
Lethal environment does not always justify reactionary violent behavior |
|
For striking down malevolence takes it's place and our timeline read the same here |
|
Oh but the kindness |
|
I've known |
|
Oh this kindness is what the great search is for not wisdom or divining |
|
Our subconsionce recognizes it's safe guard form birth |
|
To keep our self absorbed frustrated minds from grinding |
|
Oh but the kindness |
|
I've known |
