Sin To Believe a Lie

While the children are starving in the street
We are sipping our fine champagne
While a family hunts for food to eat the stock market goes insane
Do we stop and wonder why what could be our alibi
There are no rules in this game of fools we play

Can we find ourselves a new vaccine
Break the chain of apathy
We need a dose of empathy right away

It's a sin against yourself when you bow to someone else
When you fail to see the truth right in front of your eyes
Throwing fuel on the fire when you hail a false messiah
If you choose to be blind it could make you lose your mind
It's a sin to believe a lie

It has taken its toll since the dawn of time and still there is no cure
It's a sickness of a different kind and still there's no lesson learned
There are heroes come and gone who never lived to sing their song
It's nobody's friend in the end we all get burned

Can we find ourselves a new vaccine
Break the chain of apathy
We need a dose of empathy right away

It's a sin against yourself when you bow to someone else
When you fail to see the truth right in front of your eyes
Throwing fuel on the fire when you hail a false messiah
If you choose to be blind it could make you lose your mind
It's a sin to believe a lie

Standing in the darkness
Out of touch and heartless
It's time to stop the bleeding
We're deaf to what we're needing
Needing, needing

It's a sin against yourself when you bow to someone else
When you fail to see the truth right in front of your eyes
Throwing fuel on the fire when you hail a false messiah
If you choose to be blind it could make you lose your mind
It's a sin to believe a lie
