Kindness
Oh I try to let the warmth in
And sometimes I may have some luck
And sometimes I find all the treasures that have fallen out of my mind
and I can fill my own cup
It feels so nice but
it hurts
when it all
erupts
Does kindness come with a price?
Because I want to be compassionate, open and
free
So I try and try, and I am.
Cause someday, it'll all be okay
Right?
Oh and someday, it'll all go away
Right?
Because we all need the sun, and a smile or two from a familiar face or someone brand new
And yes, it's been a long time since I've shown all my wounds with the entire world here in this room
My hands shake, my voice quakes and my throat hurts from the strain of keeping it all in while also letting it out
and
letting
it
go
Cause I try to let the warmth in
But sometimes it all comes out
And sometimes I find all the treasures that have fallen from within
And in those moments I can fill my own cup
It feels so nice
but it hurts
when it all
erupts
