Lyrics of Harmony Hall by Vampire Weekend
verse
We took a vow in summertime
Now we find ourselves in late December
I believe that New Year's Eve
Will be the perfect time for their great surrender
But they don't remember
pre-chorus
Anger wants a voice, voices wanna sing
Singers harmonize till they can't hear anything
I thought that I was free from all that questionin'
But every time a problem ends, another one begins
chorus
And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness
Anybody with a worried mind could never forgive the sight
Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified
I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die
chorus
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die
verse
Within the halls of power lies a nervous heart that beats
Like a Young Pretender's
Beneath these velvet gloves I hide
The shameful, crooked hands of a moneylender
'Cause I still remember
pre-chorus
Anger wants a voice, voices wanna sing
Singers harmonize till they can't hear anything
I thought that I was free from all that questionin'
But every time a problem ends, another one begins
chorus
And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness
Anybody with a worried mind could never forgive the sight
Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified
I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die
chorus
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die
chorus
And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness
Anybody with a worried mind could never forgive the sight
Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified
I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die
chorus
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die
chorus
And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness
Anybody with a worried mind could never forgive the sight
Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified
I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die
Writer(s): Ariel Zvi Rechtshaid, Ezra Koenig
