SilverRogue: An IZ songfic for the song "Independence Day" by Gretchen
Peters. I own nothing. That's right! You heard me right! NOTHING! If you
review at least one of my fics, I'll review at least one of your fics
(providing that they're IZ related) Okay! On with the fic! (it's from Dib's
POV)
Well Gaz seemed all right by dawn's early light
Though she looked a little worried and weak
Gaz tried to pretend she wasn't cryin' again
But her tears left the proof on her cheek
and I was only thirteen that summer
And I always seemed to be in the way
So I took myself down to the fair in town
On Independence Day
.
Well word gets a round in a small, small town
They said I was a dangerous kid
But Gaz was proud and she stood her ground
But she knew she was on the losin' end
Some folks whispered and some folks talked
But everybody looked the other way
When our time ran out there was no one about
Only Independence Day
.
Let Freedom ring
Let the white dove sing
Let the whole world know that today
Is a Day of reckoning
Let the weak be strong
Let the right be wrong
Roll the stone away
Let the guilty pay
It's Independence Day
.
Dad's lab lit up the sky that fourth of July
By the time that the firemen come
They just put out the flames
and took down some names
And sent us to an orphanage home
Now I ain't sayin' it's right or it's wrong
But maybe it's the only way
Talk about your revolution
It's Independence Day
.
Let Freedom ring
Let the white dove sing
Let the whole world know that today
Is a Day of reckoning
Let the weak be strong
Let the right be wrong
Roll the stone away
Let the guilty pay
It's Independence Day
.
Roll the stone away
It's Independence Day
