Lyrics

DON’T KILL THE MESSENGER

Fortnight from the day I spoke of
History would sure repeat itself
But they didn’t like what I would tell
So instead of believing my voice
They chose to put me on the rack
But they didn’t get another chance
[Chorus]:
Feel after what is real
What does it reveal?
Is it truth or is it fiction? Go think about it
But don’t kill the messenger
Be the wiser: don’t kill the messenger

What if there would come a prophet-
Warning of what you hate to hear
If that saved your life from what you fear?
What if change was what you needed
Away from what you think you love?
Find out if the message came from God
[Chorus]
Cold assumptions that they make
Refuse the warnings, not to take
Infinite reasons, decline to heed
Pride and anguish, wounds to bleed
But don’t kill the messenger.
