It's 4th of July
You're cryin'
Your world's come crashin' down
You know it's not right
But you're still tryin'
To turn it back around

Can't see it now
You're better off without
Someone who kept you down
I know, I know you thought
It was love, but love ain't like this
You should shine your brightest
I know, I know you're hurtin' right now

I can see the fireworks soarin'
Even though your tears are fallin'
For every star, every stripe
There's a scar on your heart tonight
True love will never take your freedom
Right now I know you don't believe it
But, baby, one day, hey
You're gonna celebrate
Your Independence Day

This time next year
We'll be laughin'
In the summer sun
Poppin' bottles, we'll be right here
Dancin' till the darkness
You know

This ain't love yet, love ain't like this
You should shine your brightest
I know, I know you're hurtin' right now

I can see the fireworks soarin'
Even though your tears are fallin'
For every star, every stripe
There's a scar on your heart tonight
True love will never take your freedom
Right now I know you don't believe it
But, baby, one day, hey
You're gonna celebrate
Your Independence Day

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Your Independence Day
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Your Independence Day

It's 4th of July
You're cryin'
Your world's come crashin' down

I can see the fireworks soarin' (whoa-oh-oh)
Even though your tears are fallin' (even though)
For every star, every stripe
There's a scar on your heart tonight (on your heart tonight)
True love will never take your freedom (oh)
Right now I know you don't believe it (oh-oh-oh)
But, baby, one day, hey
You're gonna celebrate (gonna celebrate)
Your Independence Day
