Independently Happy (Live)

I looked into her eyes
And I swear the rain came down like
I feel that it's hard enough to say goodbye
I feel on those waters should I sink or die
But, oh, an empty plate filled 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, oh, she lives in Oklahoma City
Far away from me

Well, that's an empty hope chest
I quit the dope quest
And remain independently happy
That's right, we're 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
But another page, a sullen rage
And I'll be back to my normal self

Come on, that's right, we're finally happy
Happy
Independently happy

I drive to the edge of my considerate plane
I apologize to the people I hurt on the way
Fuck it, but I
I wipe the slate clean, I kicked the daydream
And remain independently happy
Tear the fucking roof down, that's right, we're finally happy
Happy

I'm independently
I'm independently
Happy
Happy
I'm independently
But you know, I'm working on happy
