Lady Liberty
Verse 1: In New York there is a statue with a torch and Bronze skin
And the flame in her right hand would guide the weary in
Chorus: Lately its Dark at sea, You’re a beacon to the tired and
free, Baby baby, come back to me, LADY LIBERTY
Verse 2: She came across the ocean, all the way from Paris, France
And they pieced her back together, sparing no expense
Chorus: Lately it’s Dark at sea, You’re an ember of what you used
to be, Baby baby, come back to me, LADY LIBERTY
Verse 3: For years you’ve been the symbol for the masses who
can’t breathe. But now your futures not so certain and nothings guaranteed
Chorus: Lately it’s dark at sea, You’re a figment of what you used to
be, Baby baby, come back to me, LADY LIBERTY.
