CLOUDCOVER lyrics : "Independence Day"
Someone said I'd lose everything
Whatever I know, something comes to show
Pictures of glass are like painting of old.
Independence Day,
I was sleeping in my brain,
Dreaming I could draw pictures of the snow
Something came to mind,
I didn't think I'd find
Were there subtleties to life?
I'd never know
Wisdom's a gift,
but I'd trade it for youth
I'm wrapping wires 'round everybody's head
Pent up, we break up, we stand up, I hang up
I can't see the colors anymore
Like a fire in the rain,
I did without a name,
but like trick candles my embers burn on for you
Like a light, my mind
Like a bookshelf,
I gather the dust for you
Complete,
I am not a human being,
Though my hand's over heart for you
Pledge allegiance to the one's that love us,
Not the one's like you
Now Independence Day,
Finds me running miles away
I am not a human being
Someone said I'd lose everything
Whatever I know, something comes to show
Paintings of you are like pictures of old.
