Independence Day by Ethel Cain Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Baby we're all out of places to go
Now that home's all gone
We burned that old son of a bitch down
We smashed out the windows and we pissed in the lawn 'cause
Happy's always been the dream
But we need to start waking up
I could follow you out there, but just hold on
[Chorus]
(Wait, just stay}
Your face is all fucked up from taking the world by the teeth
And there's blood on your hands, you don't know whose it is
Oh baby, come back in
[Spoken]
I've always wondered why bad things happen to good people
But then you told me you know I"m a good person and you've always been a bad thing
So now I wonder if those good people are really all that good
And if these bad things are really all that bad
I mean, all I really know nowadays is I've got you and you've got me and everything else
I don't know
I don't know anymore
I don't know
[Chorus]
That white horse is long gone
But we're moving on
We just keep moving on
Baby we're all out of places to go
Now that home's all gone
We burned that old son of a bitch down
We smashed out the windows and we pissed in the lawn 'cause
Happy's always been the dream
But we need to start waking up
I could follow you out there, but just hold on
[Chorus]
(Wait, just stay}
Your face is all fucked up from taking the world by the teeth
And there's blood on your hands, you don't know whose it is
Oh baby, come back in
[Spoken]
I've always wondered why bad things happen to good people
But then you told me you know I"m a good person and you've always been a bad thing
So now I wonder if those good people are really all that good
And if these bad things are really all that bad
I mean, all I really know nowadays is I've got you and you've got me and everything else
I don't know
I don't know anymore
I don't know
[Chorus]
That white horse is long gone
But we're moving on
We just keep moving on
