Lyrics

Like you said when we crawled down from the trees
We're in transition
I don't want to remain on the edge
We must embrace the new conditions
I'm alright, I'm alright, though it's a contradiction
It's enough, but less than I imagined
I'll get used to this
A one roomed apartment
If I fall behind with the rent
I'll have to borrow from a close friend
I'm alright, I'm alright, though it's a contradiction
It's enough, but less than I imagined
You always promise more than you can deliver
Independence ain't dependence
You always promise more than you can deliver
Independence ain't dependence
When you said it gets so cold that we could freeze
I reconsidered
I did all I could to be saved
It looks like I made the wrong decision
I'm alright, I'm alright, though it's a contradiction
It's enough, but less than I imagined
You always promise more than you can deliver
Independence ain't dependence
You always promise more than you can deliver
Independence ain't dependence
Independence ain't dependence
Independence ain't dependence
Independence ain't dependence
Independence ain't dependence
I'm alright, I'm alright, though it's a contradiction
It's enough, but less than I imagined
You always promise more than you can deliver
Independence ain't dependence
You always promise more than you can deliver
Independence ain't dependence
