You thought you had a hold on me
For a while I thought it too
You knew that you could trust in me
I thought I could trust in you
Until the day I found out
What was really goin' on
Well, she can have you, there's no doubt
That I'm better with you gone
Chorus:
It's Independance Day
Say what you wanna say
But since you went away
Every day
Is Independance Day
You thought I'd only cry
When you said goodbye
But boy I'm flyin' high
Cause every day
Is Independance Day
When you came to get your things
You thought I'd be full of sorrow
By then I'd learned what independance brings
I'd found the promise in tomorrow
You can think I'm grieving for your love
If it lets your ego reign
I'm too busy learnin' what I'm made of
To participate in your solitary game
Repeat Chorus
Boy I'd love to thank you
For setting me free
For making me see through
My illusion of you and me
But I will never thank you
No time to push your ego higher
I'm finally doin' things I wanna do
I'm busy doin' what I desire
Repeat Chorus
