Lady Liberty

(album: Walls - 2018)

Lady Liberty
Lift your lamp of hope a little higher
Burn that flame of freedom just a little brighter, please
For all the world to see and still believe

Oh, Lady Liberty
Show us how to stand and feel a little prouder
As the anthem plays let's sing
And raise our voices even louder
Since the real danger lies in the sound of silence

Lady Liberty
I see you rise above the crashing waves
Bearing witness to our darkest days
Like that terrible September
When we stopped and cried together
Remember?

Lady Liberty
Give me your tired and your poor
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore
Send these, the homeless, the tempers tossed to me, to me

So lift your lamp and lead us through the golden door
Tell the whole damn universe there's a room for all of us and more
Forever

Lady Liberty, my country 'tis of thee
Lady Liberty, for all the world to see
Please, Lady Liberty
