Lyrics:
I’m a New Yorker with long American roots I see a land that’s tilting and I don’t know what to do Something is different, this danger feels new Who do we look to? In the capitol building, the chosen few I wrote a song for you As you walk through Statuary Hall Do you hear the marble breathing? All the statues are trying to talk What do you think that they’re saying? The muse of history writes everything down She writes just what she sees in Washington town As you walk through Statuary Hall Did you catch the marble moving? All these statues are trying to walk Where do you think that they’re going? We’re on a bigger team than left or right We have a flickering history as a guiding light Don't want to see the american dream die in the night Around the world in bars and parks People commiserate Complex feelings around this flag of ours But don't want to see it fade They still want their american friend As you walk through Statuary Hall Do you see the marble moving? All these statues are starting to walk Where do you think that they’re going? To find the man who would be king Doesn’t seem to care about anything Now's the time to do something Now’s the time to say something Do we dare look away, turn our heads As we slide into the dark? When we’re old, looking back We will cry when we see what we have done Families split up, the world heating up We are letting hate lead us away
