If one day I cease to be kind
It’s because kindness has wounded me deep
If ever my warmth fades from mind
It’s because cold hearts have shattered my keep
If one day I cease to be kind
It’s because kindness brought naught but despair
I longed to be shelter mankind
But did anyone truly care
I sold my dreams for a pittance
Clenching my teeth just to make ends meet
Fearful of parents’pain lover’s grievance
Afraid my whole life might end in defeat
We walk through life’s trials day after day
Witnessing warmth turn to frost light to shade
Years slip by silent swift and astray
Leaving us trembling lost and afraid
If one day I cease to be kind
It’s because kindness has wounded me deep
If ever my warmth fades from mind
It’s because cold hearts have shattered my keep
If one day I cease to be kind
It’s because kindness brought naught but despair
I longed to be shelter mankind
But did anyone truly care
I sold my dreams for a pittance
Clenching my teeth just to make ends meet
Fearful of parents’pain lover’s grievance
Afraid my whole life might end in defeat
We walk through life’s trials day after day
Witnessing warmth turn to frost light to shade
Years slip by silent swift and astray
Leaving us trembling lost and afraid
I sold my dreams for a pittance
Clenching my teeth just to make ends meet
Fearful of parents’pain lover’s grievance
Afraid my whole life might end in defeat
We walk through life’s trials day after day
Witnessing warmth turn to frost light to shade
Years slip by silent swift and astray
Leaving us trembling lost and afraid
