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      Strong and resiliant,   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 fiance,   So I will hold this candle high      Independence Day, nothing I could say   Would 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"      Chorus      I can think of   Better synonyms for fear   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      Chorus
