Bigger than my body

This is a call to the color-blind
This is an IOU
I´m stranded behind a horizon line
Tied up in 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 fuse to dry
Someday I´ll fly
Someday I´ll soar
Someday I´ll be so damn much more
Cause I´m bigger than my body gives me credit for
Why is it not my time?
What is there more to learn?
Shed this skin I´ve been tripping in
Never to quite return
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 so damn 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
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
Someday I´ll fly
Someday I´ll soar
Someday I´ll be so damn much more
Cause I´m bigger than my body
I´m bigger than my body
I´m bigger than my body now
This is an IOU
I´m stranded behind a horizon line
Tied up in 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 fuse to dry
Someday I´ll fly
Someday I´ll soar
Someday I´ll be so damn much more
Cause I´m bigger than my body gives me credit for
Why is it not my time?
What is there more to learn?
Shed this skin I´ve been tripping in
Never to quite return
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 so damn 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
Yes, I´m grounded
Got my wings clipped

All this pavement

While I´m waiting
For my fuse to dry
For my fuse to dry
Someday I´ll fly
Someday I´ll soar
Someday I´ll be so damn much more
Cause I´m bigger than my body
I´m bigger than my body
I´m bigger than my body now
