Independent
saski Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Maybe you misunderstood
I said I want you, not that I need you
Maybe the timings no good
Let's keep it natural, no more than casual

If you just listen close we might not go our separate ways
If you just listen close this might not be a passing phase
If you just listen close we might not go our separate ways
If you just listen close, if you just listen close

I do this all on my own
I don't need you
I'm so independent
So used to fighting alone
I don't need you
I'm so independent

I'll tell you when to let go
Try to be ready, don't make this heavy
I'll tell you what we both know
It's never over until we're closer

If you just listen close we might not go our separate ways
If you just listen close this might not be a passing phase
If you just listen close we might not go our separate ways
If you just listen close, if you just listen close

I do this all on my own
I don't need you
I'm so independent
So used to fighting alone
I don't need you
I'm so independent
I'm so independent
I'm so independent

If you just listen close we might not go our separate ways
If you just listen close this might not be a passing phase
If you just listen close we might not go our separate ways
If you just listen close, if you just listen close

I do this all on my own
I don't need you
I'm so independent
So used to fighting alone
I don't need you
I'm so independent

I do this all on my own
I don't need you
I'm so independent
So used to fighting alone




I don't need you
I'm so independent

The version without the added hi hat,; well-timed pauses; the mellowed down bridge; and without the extra "If you just listen close we might not go our separate ways." makes this song even better. Still excited to hear more in 2020!
