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

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 that trouble comes, and trouble goes

Be more kind, my friends

Try to be more kind

— Francis Edward Turner from ‘Be More Kind'
