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 do 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
