I'm so alternative I am so independent This is the way to live The independent way of life I'm so alternative I am so independent This is the way to live The independent way of life The independent way of life I'm twenty-five or so At least I was twelve years ago Despise my existence And my miserable gothic wife Have no identity Have no personality You wouldn't notice me Even if I stabbed you with a knife Now I am so depressed And my eyes are painted black My days are one long trauma I'm about to crack I am so happy… I'm so alternative I am so independent This is the way to live The independent way of life I'm so alternative I am so independent This is the way to live The independent way of life The independent way of life My day's a pile of shit I love every minute hating it The way I dress reflects my soul I'd never anything Nike I hardly ever sleep Sleep is not considered deep I'm really difficult Detest everything you like Play me your favourite tune I'll convince the world it's junk But if you listen to what I listen to I will slip into a funk I am so special… I got a gig today You won't believe the stuff we play We just signed a major deal Riches are heading our way I was alternative I was so independent This was the way to live The independent way of life I was alternative I was so independent This was the way to live The independent way of life The independent way of life
