Bleeding, you've opened up a wound This is just what I wanted you to know, I've paid my dues Leaving, the only way to know If I can stand upon my feet, it's been so long ago Free, this is my intention I shout, from the highest mountain My independence day, this is the only way I will never hide again All my dreams were through You know this isn't about you I will never run and hide again Breathing, there's something in the air I'd blame it on the rain it was someone else's affair Believe me, when I say it's getting old The desperate way you look at me, you look into my soul I want you to know, I've nothing to show When a beauty was a mistress I'm a slave deep down below Free, this is my intention I shout, from the highest mountain My independence day, this is the only way I will never hide again All my dreams were through You know this isn't about you I will never run and hide again My independence day, this is the only way I will never hide again All my dreams were through You know this isn't about you My independence day, this is the only way I will never hide again All my dreams were through You know this isn't about you I will never run and hide I will never run and hide
