We Don't Need a Super Power

[Verse 1]
Another headline on the TV glow
Another hand that nobody holds
Everybody talkin' like they really know
How to fix this broken road
We keep waitin' on some distant star
Some savior in a fancy car
But the smallest light in a midnight heart
Shines farther than we think it does
[Chorus]
We don't need a super power
We just need a little kindness
Someone to sit with us
Right there in the silence (mm)
If every stranger was a brother
Every broken soul a part of me
Peace ain't some far-off tower
It's love and compassion on our street
[Verse 2]
I see a neighbor on her front porch swing
Lonely coffee in her trembling hands
Takes just a moment to walk across the grass
Say "How you doin', I can stay if I can"
We're busy buildin' bigger walls each day
But fences don't keep the hurt away
One open door and a warm embrace
Can soften what a lifetime made
[Chorus]
We don't need a super power
We just need a little kindness
A gentle word spoken
Right there in the crisis (yeah)
If every stranger was a brother
Every worried heart a part of me
Peace ain't some far-off tower
It's love and compassion on our street
[Bridge]
What if the war is in our minds
And the truce is in our hands
Starts with the way we look someone in the eye
Say, "I get it, I understand" (I understand)
[Chorus]
We don't need a super power
We just need a little kindness
One small act of mercy
Where the dark is the blindest
If every stranger was a brother
Every wounded soul a part of me
Then maybe the world finds peace and harmony
Through love and compassion on our street (on our street)

Soft pedal steel swells in the chorus, with subtle organ pad underlining the emotion. Verses stay intimate and close-mic’d; chorus lifts with light harmonies and a touch of tambourine.
