Independence

My independence went away

I didn't listen when it said

'rely on yourself

trusting someone else is a path for the silent ghost'

My independence went astray

I didn't think you could betray

the pieces that belong inside yourself

Still I wonder where did we go wrong

Dear independence, which way to go?

Dear independence, the world will know

what I think is right

Dear independence, which way to go?

Dear independence, the world will know

what I think is right

My independence kicked me out

It fed me to a hungry crowd

Like a leper I'm not touched

and I cannot bear to watch

as I lose the will to lose myself

My independence, which way to go?

My independence, the world will know

what I think is right

My independence

My independence

had a mind of its own

My independence

My independence

My independence

My independence,

had a mind,

had a mind
