Well you trust no one, you can never rest   Trust anyone and they'll strike while you're sleeping   And just as the sun must keep on seeking the west   Everything you love will always be leaving   Yeah leaving      Oh the fireworks explode, lighting up our way, up my way   The painting of the sky on my independence day, on my day   I watch this world roll on and I think I might stay   Yeah, I'd like to stay      Oh now tell me, was he the one while I was gone who kept you busy?   Did he come in my place?   Could he make you dizzy?   Yeah and I suppose that I got a little boy inside   And in every woman's man is a little boy that died      Stone jumping, looking at the ocean   I've got no direction, but I'm in motion   And I've got my mind, I've got my music   I've got my soul until I lose it   Ride on, oh ride on      And I still remember everything   Still remember living like an idiot   I remember, oh I remember   Yeah I still remember everything   Under the embers, I'm still burning   I'm still, still      Well you trust no one, you can never rest   Trust anyone and they'll strike while you're sleeping   And just as the sun must keep on seeking the west   Everything you love will always be leaving, leaving      And the fireworks explode, oh lighting up our way, my way   The painting of the sky on my independence day, on my day   And I watch this beautiful world roll on and I think I might stay
