lyrics

It starts with a witness, a kindness, a vision
A hand held, an arm linked in mine
Carving out some time
To understand my crime
I try not to fear thoughts of change sought for old flaws
My heart might not want to feel
But we can never heal
What we keep concealed

Love more, fear less it’s a practice
I don’t promise you gold
But I swear it on my soul
I’ll keep trying

Were you asking me to listen?
Was I talking through your turn?
Was I offering kisses and band-aids
Insufficient to the burn?
Were you marching on the frontlines
Were you calling for my aid
While I stood soft on the shoulder
Watching the parade?

Love more, fear less it’s a practice
Love more, fear less it’s a practice
Love more, fear less it’s a practice
