her name is Amber, her life like no other

this was the night, her soul took flight

all the children went out to play

independence day



I have voices in my head

we pretend that we're friends

they all say they hate you

they're not scared of you

it's an awful cruel world

the way you hurt me

the way you touch me, I'm your little girl

I'm your flesh and blood, I found your gun



good night, sleep tight

don't let the bed bugs bite

pull the covers down, turn the lights out

independence day, independence day



I have friends under my bed

they put ideas in my head

I need a sandpaper shower

I'll scrub my skin for hours

it's an awful cruel world

the things you say to me

the way you play with me, I'm your little girl

I'm your flesh and blood, I found your gun



good night, sleep tight

don't let the bed bugs bite

pull the covers down, turn the lights out

independence day, independence day



a bedtime kiss

dirty hands unclean

a pillow for my head in case I scream

frozen thoughts, white knuckles

but I'm not afraid

of your belt buckle

I have your gun



good night, sleep tight

don't let the bed bugs bite

pull the covers down, turn the lights out

independence day, independence day
