Independence Day
Do you know how it hurts when a fairytale burns?Love is a refugeeAin't that absurd?You know how it feelsWhen sudden dreams slowly fade to greyThis is my independence day
She said she'd never love againBecause he broke her heartAnd now she's blaming himBut he told her from the startThat what they had was specialBut it ain't really loveAlthough he gave her everythingShe never had his heartBut that's all that she needsSo what's tearing her apart?'Cause loving him is hardBut that's all she really wantsShe treats him like a kingAnd he treats her like a queenBut when he don't come homeHe don't tell her where he's beenBut she already knowsHe got lipstick in his clothesIt's the message in his phoneAnd the smell of his cologneBut she don't say a tone or even moanShe don't stress, fight or fussShe just keeps it to her own
When she cries, she dries her eyesShe never lied in her lifeSo his lies sound like knives every nightIn the morning she's all right'Cause she don't wanna fightBut tonight she'll be gone forever

He said he'd never love again'Cause he don't want the painOf having someone specialDo that shit to him againAnd though it ain't his faultThere ain't no-one else to blameFor all those sunny daysWhen all you see is rainAll you got are memoriesBut that just ain't the same'Cause the woman that he lovedMust have simply gone awayAnd everyday he wakes upFeeling like he's up in chainsAnd now her sweetest touchIs like a shot to his brainAnd this is just a shame'Cause she don't say a thingExcept to break his heartLike she's in a wicked gameThat he ain't trying to playBut he's stuck trying to win'Cause he's stuck loving someoneWho just ain't in love with him
But he's in love with herAnd this is where it hurtsNo but she don't give a damnOr even know his worthShe treats him like he's dirtThat she can throw awayBut he ain't going away'Cause today's gonna be the day
Do you know how it hurts when a fairytale burns?Love is a refugeeAin't that absurd?You know how it feelsWhen sudden dreams slowly fade to greyThis is my independence day
So forgive me but I'm gone now'Cause I'm free and I'm never coming home nowI'll find hope in forever'Cause I'm thrown nowAnd I'm flying and I ain't gonna go downI used to think we were magic but slow downYou didn't know what you had when you had itAnd now you realise that it's gone like magicAnd I guess you really want me back, right?Well, forget it
