E. Philly - A Cup of Kindness Lyrics

Time's been playing tricks on me
Contracting when it's good
Leaving me to wrestle with
What can't be understood
The way you turn your music up
To drown the awful sound
Your engine's making, driving 80
Headed out of town
I want less of that next year
I want more of this
Take the good and bad as one
And wrap me up in bliss
I've learned we're all connected
Like how trees all share the rain
We're not just sharing spaces
We inhabit the same pain
My friend said that she's tired
Yet the world keeps us around
And we fight against it
Like we fight our feet against the ground
I want less of that next year
I want more of this
Take the good and bad as one
And wrap me up in bliss
Find me here in silence
Take a breath and feel the mend
Waking up around us
Oh, this doesn't have to end
But I've tried and tried
To hide my eyes from the sight
Of time going by
A year and a night at a time
It's alright
I want less of that next year
I want more of this
Take the good and bad as one
And wrap me up in bliss
I want less of that next year
There must be more to this
Take the good and bad as one
And wrap me up in bliss
(Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And days of lang syne
For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne
We'll take a cup of kindness yet
For auld lang syne)
