 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

There has never been a day 
When the world wasn't new 
When the sun didn't rise 
Or the light breaks on through 
Things might get a little worse 
Before they get a little better 
But there are always clearer skies 
Stretching out beyond bad weather and 
The world holds its breath 
To see where we'll incline this time 

I feel something has shifted 
I know the story's changed 
In the window of a crisis 
We can build a better frame 
Come on and look inside you 
That's the best place to start 
The greatest revolution 
Is a simple change of heart 
I can't put the sacred in such a little box 
Because it's not 

There's no shame in learning something 
When there's something that must be learned 
But there's danger when we will not see 
What our actions earn 

Courage doesn't always shout 
But whispers and reminds 
When we get up one more morning 
And try one more time 
We tried yelling at each other 
It hasn't worked so well 
Throwing gas on fire 
Never helped as far as I can tell 
Throwing stones cut deep 
A little kindness goes deeper still
