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
