Carola - Declaration of my independence lyrics

I've had enough of your acting like you own me

You call this love

But it's just your way of trying to control me

I know my rights

I learned them in school

And I won't live my life by your rules

This is a declaration of my independence from you

You pushed me over the edge

And my pledge and allegiance is through

I'm on permanent vacation

From this nowhere situation

This is a declaration of my independence from you

You shut me out when I offer my opinions

You put me down

You say I'm too emotional to make good decisions

I just can't breath there's no room to grow

I'm strong enough to stand on my own

This is a declaration of my independence from you...

For a while my heart was really broken

But that was before

For a while I left these words unspoken

But not anymore

This is my emancipation

From this nowhere situation

Declaration of my independence

Got my independence

Gotta get out

Got my independence from you

I've got to get my independence from you

I am free, I am free, I am free, I am free today

My lord knows I am free

Declaration of my independence

This is... it's a declaration
