Its A Lie To Tell A Sin |
LyricsDear World© 2018 Starburst/Bauer Shortened version Floating down the corridors of misbegotten lawgivers, no one sees reality, no one knows what's right And long before there's honesty it's only the blind that see, the meddling mediocrity, the stumbling idiocrasy I'm standing here beside myself, conversing on a puppet's shelf Why? There's no reason Dear World somehow we find the strength Dear World some things are heaven sent Lorena's here from Mexico with a suitcase full of dreams Said she'd like to sing some songs we've never heard before Straps her guitar round her neck & her voice begins to beam I still hear heavy breathing as the magic starts to soar She plays her tunes till midnight While the fans just grow and grow She's wondering where they came from When the juggler joins the show & now she's famous But she doesn't know how come Dear World we start to see the light Dear World we're crushing wrong with right Lorena says don't hold back, says it's time to spank the night Light your candles in the woodshed, toke up and burn it bright It's another day of promises, and she never loses faith silence doubting Thomas's, working miracles case by case working miracles case by case Dear World I never thought we'd come this far Dear World did we really, really heal the scars Dear World I still can't stop thinking 'bout her The minstrel and the juggler show Dear World I guess I knew I'd always, always, always know |

Story Behind the Song: I wrote this song as my homage to performing indie artists throughout the world who, in the face of never ending fear, hatred and xenophobia focus on spreading joy, peace and love at a time in history where these virtues are seemingly in such short supply. |
