Lyrics Kate Voegele

Kate Voegele

Burning the Harbor

I don't know what to do

But stare into space

Wish I could shut my eyes

I used to sleep at night

I used to feel safe

But now I'm terrified

So take away this darkness in the air

It's like black flames are everywhere

Someone say there's hope on the way

Oh can you shake it down on the sea and rain down the water

Make it count can't you see our hearts will break it harder

Rain down, rain down the water

Rain down, rain down the water

Have you heard us screaming out?

We're burning the harbor

We took a holy place

We taught it violence

And called it efficiency, oh

We've seen the hell it creates

But we've chosen silence

And kept it viciously, yeah

So take away this darkness in the air

It's like black flames are everywhere

Someone say there's hope on the way

Oh can you shake it down on the sea and rain down the water

Make it count can't you see our hearts will break it harder

Rain down, rain down

Rain down, rain down the water

Have you heard us screaming out?

We're burning the harbor

Maybe we need a second chance

Maybe it's out of our hands

Maybe it's time we take a stand

Oh can you shake it down on the sea and rain down the water

Make it count can't you see our hearts will break it harder

Rain down, rain down the water

Rain down, rain down the water

Have you heard us screaming out?

Oh whoa oh, can you shake it down on the sea and rain down the water

Make it count can't you see our hearts will break it harder

Rain down, rain down the water

Rain down, rain down the water

Have you heard us screaming out?

We're burning the harbor

I say we're burning the harbor

You know we're burning the harbor
