Bigger Than My Body
Lyrics
This is a call to the colorblind This is an IOU Stranded behind a horizon line Try to be something true Yes, I'm grounded Got my wings clipped I'm surrounded by All this pavement Guess I'll circle While I'm waiting For my fears to dry Someday I'll fly Someday I'll soar Someday I'll be Something much more 'Cause I'm bigger than my body Gives me credit for ♪ Why is it not the time? What is there more to learn? Yeah I've shed this skin I've been tripping in And I've never quite returned Yes, I'm grounded Got my wings clipped I'm surrounded by All this pavement Guess I'll circle While I'm waiting For my fuse to dry Someday I'll fly Someday I'll soar Someday I'll be Something much more ♪ 'Cause I'm bigger than my body Gives me credit for 'Cause I'm bigger than my body now ♪ Maybe I'll tangle in the power lines And it might be over in a second's time But I'll gladly go down in a flame If the flame's what it takes to remember my name To remember my name, oh Yes, I'm grounded Got my wings clipped I'm surrounded by All this pavement Guess I'll circle While I'm waiting For my fuse to dry (for my fuse to dry) Waiting for my fuse to dry Someday I'll fly Someday I'll soar Someday I'll be Something much more 'Cause I'm bigger than my body I'm bigger than my body I'm bigger than my body, now This is a call to the colorblind This is an IOU Stranded behind a horizon line Try to be something true Yes, I'm grounded Got my wings clipped I'm surrounded by All this pavement Guess I'll circle While I'm waiting For my fears to dry Someday I'll fly Someday I'll soar Someday I'll be Something much more 'Cause I'm bigger than my body Gives me credit for ♪ Why is it not the time? What is there more to learn? Yeah I've shed this skin I've been tripping in And I've never quite returned Yes, I'm grounded Got my wings clipped I'm surrounded by All this pavement Guess I'll circle While I'm waiting For my fuse to dry Someday I'll fly Someday I'll soar Someday I'll be Something much more ♪ 'Cause I'm bigger than my body Gives me credit for 'Cause I'm bigger than my body now ♪ Maybe I'll tangle in the power lines And it might be over in a second's time But I'll gladly go down in a flame If the flame's what it takes to remember my name To remember my name, oh Yes, I'm grounded Got my wings clipped I'm surrounded by All this pavement Guess I'll circle While I'm waiting For my fuse to dry (for my fuse to dry) Waiting for my fuse to dry Someday I'll fly Someday I'll soar Someday I'll be Something much more 'Cause I'm bigger than my body I'm bigger than my body I'm bigger than my body, now
