Almost 20 years ago (and it seems like last week) I wrote about the sad state of truth in this world. And what’s even sadder is…my song is even more apropos now. Real Truth is eternal. But in the here and now it obscured with blithering, withering ideologies. And it’s attacked from every angle. Ironically in the name of tolerance and acceptance.

But regardless of feelings and ideologies, Truth is eternal.

And even though it’ll take a lot of hits from people who hate the truth, it won’t deflate, give in, hide, or lose. Because Truth isn’t man-made. And I believe there’s so much to be optimistic about, even though I sang…

Nothin’s Sacred Anymore

Take the truth and lock it up, and throw away the key.
Winds of change are blowing foul; a dance with destiny.
Blur the face of love and sex and say it’s all OK.
Tell the child it’s just a choice and melt her soul away.

Nothin’s sacred anymore”
Can’t we learn from mistakes when they cut to the core?
Nothin’s sacred anymore”
And should we be surprised since we’ve opened that dark, wide door?
Nothin’s sacred anymore

Cast your vote for social growth and then say yes to law.
Keep the peace, divide the wealth; the vision Adolph saw.
Hedge the bets and ride the fence; the middle road’s secure
Then one day you’re head to head with all you must endure

Nothin’s sacred anymore”
Can’t we learn from mistakes when they cut to the core?
Nothin’s sacred anymore”
And should we be surprised since we’ve opened that dark, wide door?
Nothin’s sacred anymore

More space and time”more would be sublime.
Someone else can pay”long as I get mine today.
Ain’t nothin’ sacred anymore.
