Hal Lefferts - LYRICS

Singers Of Truth & Lie

Lately, I've been hearing these stories of where we're going
Maybe there's some merit in what they say
Then why are we waiting for somebody else to come and save the day

I know we mean the best, yeah, we're really trying
But we've been there before
After coming so far now wouldn't it be nice to finally get it right

(Chorus): We're Singers of Truth & Lie
Hiding between the lines
Rocking these boats that bear the mark of our own design (desire)

Inside the mountain, there's a dragon in his lair and he's looking for you
His fire mounting, yes there's gonna be some changes before he gets through
The odd thing about it is how we rarely see what's really going down
Never realizing our own choice to make it all work out
Its up to you and me ...

(Chorus)

Lately, I've been hearing these stories of where we're going
And maybe there's some merit in what they say
Then why are we waiting for somebody else to come and save the day ...

(Chorus) repeat




Every day we make thousands of small decisions about how we will treat each other. This is an ongoing, challenging process; yet easily unconscious most of the time. Do we forgive and forget those who "wrong" us? Or do we rant, complain, judge, and seek some kind of revenge on anyone who 'rocks our boat'? All of these incremental actions are played out by everyone every day -- all over the planet. They are combined and compounded into the state of affairs we affectionately call "the World". It isn't enough to blame others. Perhaps we make the biggest difference in the world when we raise the level of our own personal lives. We're all "Singers".
