You're biting your lip now,

I know 'cause you do it all the time.

You're blinking your eyes hard,

I know 'cause you used to be mine.

You're strong and resilient,

Beautiful and brilliant,

Proving that you're free,

Independently.

You say, you still love me,

But I'm your own worst enemy.



Chorus

Independence Day,

Second of May,

Lost my best friend and a fianc',

So I will hold this candle high.

Independence Day,

Nothing I could say,

Could sway you not to sever ties,

Your liberty can't rest on lies.



Francisco Goya,

Painted it gay,

I'd rather have been shot,

On the Third Of May.

Freedom never came for free,

Patriots are bleeding their veins clean,

That's me in the corner,

Singing "God Save the Queen",

.God save the queen.



I can think of better synonyms for fear,

I hope your life is great I hope it's been a wonderful year.

Waiting every day,

Staring at the phone,

Jesus Christ, I feel so empty and alone.
