    Lyrics
    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
    They've started raising walls around the world now
    Like hackles raised upon a cornered cat
    On the borders, in our heads
    Between things that can and can't be said
    We've stopped talking to each other
    And there's something wrong with that
    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 trouble comes, and trouble goes
    How this ends, no one knows
    So hold on tight when the wind blows
    The wind blew both of us to sand and sea
    And where the dry land stands is hard to say
    As the current drags us by the shore
    We can no longer say for sure
    Who's drowning, or if they can be saved
    But when you're out there floundering
    Like a lighthouse I will shine
    Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind
    Like a beacon reaching out
    To you and yours from me and mine
    Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind
    In a world that has decided
    That it's going to lose its mind
    Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind
    #FrankTurner

    I met Frank Turner once many years ago now and had a conversation with the man. He struck me as a genuine and sincere person. He seems to put a lot of himself in his songs. With the new album releasing soon I'm sure that there will be plenty of people screaming to bring back the old Frank. I for one enjoy where his music is headed. For him to be making the same music he was ten years ago would show a lack of growth as a person, and he has never been shy about pointing out that he is not the same person in the same place and that it will have and effect on his music.
    Keep up the good work sir. I am looking forward to the new album.
    Also super pissed I missed you and Jason Isbell when you were in my area.

    I know there’s one very distinct difference, but who thinks that Frank is the Elliott Smith of this generation??
    Like in terms of how underrated his music is, and the quality of both songwriters, they’re both gems.
    Frank deserves to be 100x more popular, and doesn’t get anywhere near the amount of credit he deserves, yet songs like Gucci Gang and Despacito will keep songs like this out of the charts..
