This is my Pause for Thought on Monday 26th May when we were in Liverpool for the LFC victory procession...such a joyous wonderful occasion marred by the horrendous injury of 79 people. Which makes my piece all the more poignant. Prayers and love 💔 YNWA

Be More Kind
Music and lyrics by Frank Turner

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 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.
And when you're out there floundering
Like a lighthouse we 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
