Independence Day
Neil Finn

As it was in the beginning
So it will be in the end
You have to keep on guessing
The world will never change
I’m sending you a message
From a million miles away
Are you aware you are controlled
By forces still unknown

There’ll be no sunset
When the rain is falling
Hard to hear thunder
When the river keeps roaring
Then, one day it’s over
Like it never happened
Disappeared without a trace
On Independence Day

We’re used to thinking
Our plans are set in stone
You’re giving me an update
You think everyone has to know
I guess I’m an accomplice
To the true original sin
Let me take your suffering
Let me take you in 

There’ll be no sunset
When the rain is falling
Hard to hear thunder
When the river keeps roaring
Then, one day its over like it never happened
Disappeared without a trace
On Independence Day
Freedom flies away
On Independence Day
