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
