Emily Maguire - I'd Rather Be lyrics

[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 I’d keep the pa**ion and the pain Than be chained in sanity And I’d 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]
