Independence Day - Palehound

Composed by：E. Kempner

We broke up on Independence Day

Crying more the next door neighbor is rich

Flashes of color on your face

The bass thumping they're chanting names

Our cat running out of the bed

With his tail between his legs

Can of soda shaken up

With every trip the sky erupts

And we're still born on the tab

Farming sugar in our laps

Sparkle in my throat

Can't we just take it all back

Join the neighbors and go dancing

With a rocket and a six pack

I am living life like writing our first draft

'Cause there's nothing to it if

I cannot dally in the past and

Even if I could it would kill me to look back

Now I don't wanna see the other path

I don't wanna see that other path

Oh to think a couple weeks before

Night driving headlight corridor

That deer ran straight into your door

Who hit who I'm still not sure

But we both made sounds

I never heard us make before

Oh what if we hadn't been running late

Oh what if I forgot to hit the breaks

What if that beast had sealed our fate

Dug us both a single grave

Well I thought it'd bring us closer

Yeah I thought it was a sign

But all it did was drive the point home

In my body and my mind

That I'm living life

Like writing my first draft

'Cause there's nothing to it if

I cannot dally in the past and

Even if I could it would kill me to look back

Now I don't wanna see the other path

I don't wanna see the other path

I don't wanna see that other path

I don't wanna see that other path

I don't wanna see it

I don't wanna see it

I don't wanna see it

I'm living life like writing my first draft

'Cause there's nothing to it if

I cannot dally in the past and

Even if I could it would kill me to look back

Now I don't wanna see the other path

I don't wanna see the other path

No I don't wanna see that other path

I don't wanna see that other path

No I don't wanna see it

I don't wanna see that other path
