This is an old song I fell in love with during college... Unfortunately when I was looking for a good clip on youtube this is the best one I could find tonight. I like that Glee redid it, brought the message back to a whole new group of people. But the best version is by Idina Menzel. It's just difficult to find a good version of her singing it on youtube :)
Defying Gravity
Soemthing has changed within meSomething is not the sameI'm through with playing by the rulesOf someone else's game
Too late for second-guessingToo late to go back to sleepIt's time to trust my instinctsClose my eyes: and leap!
It's time to try defying gravityI think I'll try defying gravityKiss me goodbye I am defying gravityAnd you won't bring me down!
I'm through accepting limits'cause someone says they're soSomethings I cannot changeBut till I try, I'll never know!
Too long I've been afraid ofLosing love I guess I've lostWell, if that's loveIt comes at much too high a cost!
I'd sooner buy defying gravityKiss me goodbye I'm defying gravityI think I'll try defying gravityAnd you won't bring me down!
I'd sooner buy defying gravityKiss me goodbye I'm defying gravityI think I'll try defying gravityAnd you won't bring me down!Bring me down!Oohh oh ohh
I've always been touched by this song but this time around, it brings something else to the surface... I truly am tired of playing by the rules of someone else's game... what's the worst that could happen if I "trust my instincts / Close my eyes: and leap"?
