Confetti
It’s getting cold out. And I don’t mean the weather.
There’s a chill from the people walking by,
every set of eyes glued to some phone.
The sun may be shining, but it don’t seem to matter
When we’re lost in the shadows on the ground,
standing in a crowd, we still feel alone.
What if we laid down whatever we’re holding that’s holding us back.
Maybe we need our hands free
So we can spread kindness like confetti
Throw it up in the air, let it fall down everywhere,
it’ll be beautiful.
If we spread kindness like confetti
Those tiny colored fragments, together work like magic,
to make the world beautiful.
Call me old-fashioned, but I’m a believer
If you go nothing nice to say there’s nothing you will gain
in saying anything at all
A little discretion when we speak to each other
Instead we keep asking who's to blame, fanning all the flames,
making others feel small.
I wanna lay down whatever I’m holding that’s holding me back.
I think maybe I need my hands free
So we can spread kindness like confetti
Throw it up in the air, let it fall down everywhere,
it’ll be beautiful.
If we spread kindness like confetti
Those tiny colored fragments, together work like magic,
to make the world beautiful.
Our words have grown louder and bigger while our skin’s getting thinner.
Our hearts are hurting, and nothing’s for certain but maybe the healing begins
when we spread kindness like confetti
Throw it up in the air, let it fall down everywhere,
it’ll be beautiful.
If we spread kindness like confetti
Those tiny colored fragments, together work like magic,
to make the world beautiful.
Maybe we're just fragments, but together we're like magic.
Let's make the world beautiful.
