Independence Lyrics

I've tried doing this on my own

But every time I do I fall

There's nothing to learn and nothing to say

'Cause independence does things her own way

Fighting to be free at last

Giving it everything I have

If only I could learn to be

Dependent on someone that ain't me

My options are running dry

My fear is running high

The walls are closing in

And I've got nothing left to give

I'm starting to see just what this was

I never knew what the cross had done

So I ran and I ran from the one called Love

But no, not once did you stand and watch

You ran after me

Like I was your prize to be won

And you want me

Independent of all I've done

You're pulling me out of my manmade hole

I take your hand, let go of my own

I'm learning to trust, I'm learning to lean

But your palm in mine holds certainty
