Sigrid Schrijft

Nu ik compleet tegen de ratio ben ingegaan en voor het onzekere heb gekozen, merk ik dat sommige mensen daar nerveus van worden. “Is dat wel verstandig?” “Zou je dat wel zo doen?” “Is dat geen groot risico?” Af en toe is zo’n bezorgdheid wat besmettelijk en moet ik mezelf eraan herinneren dat ik dat veilig leventje helemaal niet leuk vond. Dit is, voor mij, een mooie manier om elke keer weer opnieuw wakker te worden:

Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I’m through with playing by the rules
Of someone else’s game
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It’s time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes and leap!

It’s time to try
Defying gravity
I think I’ll try
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I’m defying gravity
And you won’t bring me down

I’m through accepting limits
‘Cuz someone says they’re so
Some things I cannot change
But till I try, I’ll never know!
Too long I’ve been afraid of
Losing love I guess I’ve lost
Well, if that’s love
It comes at much too high a cost!

I’d sooner buy
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I’m defying gravity
I think I’ll try
Defying gravity
And you won’t bring me down

Unlimited (Unlimited)
My future is unlimited (unlimited)
And I’ve just had a vision
Almost like a prophecy
I know – it sounds truly crazy
And true, the vision’s hazy
But I swear, someday I’ll be…

Flying so high! (Defying gravity)
Kiss me goodbye! (Defying gravity)

So if you care to find me
Look to the western sky!
As someone told me lately:
“Everyone deserves the chance to fly!”

I’m defying gravity!
And you won’t bring me down!
Bring me down!
Bring me down!
