“Wishing Well” shines a light on protecting individual rights and free speech.

lyrics

WISHING WELL
From the bottom of the wishing well.
I wish that i could wish you well.
From the burning fires here in hell
I’m looking for a truth to tell

CHORUS: I say…do some good.
Do no harm Don’t give in to the twisting arm
Because these are troubled times
these lives of yours and mine
so seek the proof in the face of all the untruth
in the face of all the untruth

All those well-heeled hands that rob us blind
And their souls so dark and void of light
From the steeples of the righteous right
driving nails deep into the night

CHORUS: Stand alone. Stand apart.
Take a deep look into your heart
Because these are troubled times
these lives of yours and mine
so seek the proof in the face of all the untruth
in the face of all the untruth

BREAK: Its hard not to be cynical about the world around us today
we must protect our words and our right to say them
before our freedoms slip away....

CHORUS: So…Raise your voice. Make it heard
Don’t leave a single stone unturned.
Because these are troubled times
these lives of your and mine
so seek the proof in the face of all the untruth in the face of all the untruth
in the face of all sides we choose.
in the face of all the fake news
in the face of all we might lose
in the face of all the untruth in the face of all the untruth

mike ward Detroit, Michigan

Lyrically-centric, vocally-charged folk songs. Those are what singer-songwriter Mike Ward loves to create. Living in Detroit, Mike grew up listening to Irish music. Influences are Jason Isbell, Bruce Springsteen and John Prine. His writing echoes along empty sidewalks, on country backroads, in family portraits, and in the thin lines between joy and tragedy, love and loss, past, present and future. ... more
