Rumors Here Of Kindness

rumors here of kindness
that only kids believe
stumbling down along the docks
they say they saw her leave

rumors here of kindness
gentle as a breeze
they say she’s deep in hiding now
fled somewhere overseas

ever since she left us
lord it hasn’t been the same
sometimes i wake up at night
still calling out her name
i’m still calling out her name

rumors here of kindness
arrested in a sting
she was doing what she did
uplifting everything

rumors here of kindness
they marched her far away
huddled in a clearing
and beat down every day

ever since she left us
lord it hasn’t been the same
sometimes i wake up at night
still calling out her name
i’m still calling out her name

rumors here of kindness
still whispered in the hall
but someone saw her body
dumped out behind the mall

somehow she still hovers lord
even though she’s gone
and now the children speak of her
like a glow before the dawn
she’s a glow before the dawn

rumors here of kindness
that only kids believe
