independence

Oh, a drifter through and through
I can well attest
Would you believe that I had found
A place to rest

You said the lonely never last
Honey, is it true
Because I only felt alone
With you

So why would I ever move onward
And risk losing all that I conquered
When I found a place that I love
Is that not enough

Sweet independence

Tying nooses 'round their necks
And saying they look good
I believed you cause you told me that I should

But why would I ever move onward
And risk losing all that I conquered
When I found a place that I love
Is that not enough

Look at the ruins I mended
Roses that grew out of wreckage
Now I can bask in the glow
Of what you don't know

Sweet independence
Independence

So shut me off
With empty words
And say that I was just afraid of getting hurt
Well, I fought for this
And you'll never know how I fought for this
(Sweet independence)
You'll never know
How I fought for this
(Sweet independence)
Yeah, I fought for this
(Sweet independence)
