I'd rather dance in the air than lie on the ground
I'd rather open my ears than shut out the sound
Travel to the ends of the earth, and tell you what
I foundI'd rather kneel down and pray than scream at the
sunPrefer to know, than to hide from my skeletonsI
don't want to sit down and cry while watching others run
If I missed the bus more than once, I'm not the only
oneDon't wanna wait around for things to come
to me'Cause when my hands are tied, they struggle to
be freeAnd if they steal my eyes, I'll find a new way
to seeThe world is forever turning, And
there's a thought that never stops burning If
I'm pounding at your door,It's because I'm
here to ask for morePrefer a thousand hello's
to just one goodbyePrefer the pain of the truth to a
pretty lieListen to the words in my head, although they
may not rhymeListen to the voice in my heart, someday
it's so sublimeDon't wanna wait around for
things to come to me'Cause when my hands are tied,
they struggle to be freeAnd if they steal my eyes,
I'll find a new way to seeThe world is forever
turning, And there's a thought that never stops
burning If I'm pounding at your door,It's
because I'm here to ask for more
