You´re telling´ me the same old story
That I need to change
If you´re not livin´ my life for me
Make you feel that way
You know you know, were losing control
I gotta break away, or nothing´s gonna change
You got to go, it´s the end of the road
No matter what you do or say
Baby you´re not what I need

I´m over this, I´m over you
I´m not gonna waste my life away
This is my independence day
I´m moving on, there´s no excuse
And I can´t take away your pain
This is my independence day
Whoo, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
This is my independence day
Whoo, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Suddenly my picture´s looking perfect
Since you´re not in the frame
And deep down, I never meant to hurt you
But you´re the one to blame
You know you know, were losing control
Before it´s too late, I´m making my escape
Now that I´m gone, you´re on your own
No matter what you do or say
Baby you´re not what I need

I´m over this, I´m over you
I´m not gonna waste my life away
This is my independence day
I´m moving on, there´s no excuse
And I can´t take away your pain
This is my independence day

Wouldn´t it be nice
If it would´a worked out right for us
I know you fight for all we had
But it didn´t feel right
Hearts on our sleeves we lost tonight
And there´s no looking back

I´m over this, I´m over you
I´m not gonna waste my life away
This is my independence day
I´m moving on, there´s no excuse
And I can´t take away your pain
This is my independence day

Wouldn´t it be nice
If it would´a worked out right for us
(there´s no looking back)
Whoo, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
This is my independence day
Whoo, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
This is my independence day
