[E. Maguire]
I would rather be a rolling stone
Than a diamond in a crown
And I would rather keep my head in clouds
Than to tie my feet to the ground
And I would rather risk going way too high
Than to never fly at all
Oh I would rather take a running dive
Than be waiting for the fall
Cos Id keep the pa**ion and the pain
Than be chained in sanity
And Id stand in the pouring rain
To feel the sun shine down on me
Cos I would rather be a shooting star
Than the empty space between
And I would rather make it short and sweet
Than to waste a century
And I would rather be a loose cannonball
Than a concrete paradise
Oh I would rather be a waterfall
Than a solid sheet of ice
[Chorus]
And I would rather stare through the blackest night
Than never see the breaking dawn
And I would rather bear this rack of life
Than to never have been born
And I would rather be a feeling flying high
Than a reason running down
And I would rather be a field of silence
Than a universe of sound
[Chorus]
