about

What if we each felt more secure and less threatened? Would we gain enough peace and insight to let that confidence and inner tranquility rise to the surface? This song blends a mix of hopeful desire and tentative wistful regret.

lyrics

If we could’ve been softer
If we each had less to defend
Would the message be stronger
If we all chose not to pretend
If the plan had been cleaner
If the beat went straight through my head
With a balanced demeanor
We could’ve been kinder instead

Tilt back against this grain
Close your eyes and you can feel the roots grow
Float wide in the freaky stream
Own that silence in between
Beating hearts demand respect
Limbs adjusting, limbs mistrusting
Hopeful tears beyond exception
Tolerate without redemption
Tides come calling, words impending
Doom engulfed without accepting
Self dissolved and goal picked clean
Own that silence in between

I could’ve been
I should’ve been kinder
I could’ve been
I should’ve been kinder

I could’ve been kinder
I could’ve been kinder
I should’ve been kinder to you
