[Lyrics for Blue October – Independently Happy]
I feel that it’s hard enough to say good-bye.
I feel there’s the water. Should I sink or dive?
An empty plate, fill up my sentimental morning star.
I steal the art of putting truth in a lie.
I still want the girl that really caught my eye.
But, she lives in Oklahoma City, far away from me.
Well,an empty hope chest.
I quit the dope quest,
And remain independently happy
I said I’m finally happy…happy… independently happy…
I deal with the fact that I’ve forgiven the worst.
I feel that my social behavior may seem somewhat unrehearsed.
Another page,
A sullen rage,
And I’ll be back to my normal self.
And I’m finally happy…happy… independently happy…
So I drive to the edge of my considerate plain.
I apologize to the people I hurt on the way.
I wipe the slate clean
I kick the daydream,
And remain independently happy.
I’m finally happy…happy… independently happy…
