LIBERTY! Songtext
von Boele

Look at the towers, how they rave through the sky
I tripped and fell then saw my world come alive
All the yellow cabs and crowds that roar
I′ve never lived this life before
I never thought I'd feel this alive
Packed my world up and left my past on the flight
Traded the rupture for the lustrous heights
For the Brooklyn Bridge and college dorms
The Empire State, Fifth Avenue
It′s all at once

And I think I've been waiting for all my life
And I have all these visions of my name in lights
So I'll
I′ll dance as the city rages on
And someday I will stay here and I′ll be raging all night long


Liberty! Is what I want and you got what I need
Liberty! Is what I got cause I followed that dream
Liberty! A sacred song and it's stuck on repeat
Liberty! Liberty!
Liberty! Is what I want and you got what you need
Liberty! Is all this love that we′ve finally seized
Liberty! I'm up so tall, the Empire has nothing on me
Liberty! Liberty!

You won′t see no stars in these dazzling nights
Living the life without restraint
And in all the subway stations, we find new constellations
And I know I can't stay here
But I′ll never really leave

Cause all the red lights fade into green lights, green lights
All the stop signs burn into street signs telling me
To dance as the city rages on
And someday I will stay here and I'll be raging all night long

Liberty! Is what I want and you got what I need
Liberty! Is what I got cause I followed that dream
Liberty! A sacred song and it's stuck on repeat
Liberty! Liberty!
Liberty! Is what I want and you got what you need
Liberty! Is all this love that we′ve finally seized
Liberty! I′m up so tall, the Empire has nothing on me
Liberty! Liberty!


I'm 17 and I feel evergreen
I′m blaring out cause this is my moment
The stars as my accomplice
I'm young but in growing up
Sick of waiting all my life
I′m 17 and feel evergreen
I'm painting out my place in this city
And if I′m just dreaming
Please never wake me up
I've been waiting all my life

I'm 17 and I feel evergreen
I′ll dance as the city rages on
And someday I will stay here and I′ll be raging all night long

Liberty! Is what I want and you got what I need
Liberty! Is what I got cause I followed that dream
Liberty! A sacred song and it's stuck on repeat
Liberty! Liberty!
Liberty! Is what I want and you got what you need (I′m 17 and I feel evergreen)
Liberty! Is all this love that we've finally seized (I′m blaring out cause this is my moment)
Liberty! I'm up so tall, the Empire has nothing on me (The stars as my accomplice)
Liberty! Liberty! (I′m young but in growing up)
(Sick of waiting all my life)
