Lyrics
Mercedes:
Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
Kurt:
I'm through with playing by the rules
Of someone else's game
Rachel:
Too late for second guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
Mercedes:
It's time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes and leap!
Kurt:
It's time to try defying gravity
Mercedes:
I think I'll try defying gravity
Rachel:
Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity
Mercedes:
And you won't bring me down, no
Rachel:
I'm through accepting limits
'Cause someone says they're so
Mercedes:
Some things I cannot change
But till I try I'll never know!
Rachel:
Too long I've been afraid of
Losing love I guess I've lost
Kurt:
Well, if that's love
It comes at... (Rachel: much too high a cost)
Mercedes:
I'd sooner buy defying gravity
Rachel:
Kiss me goodbye
Mercedes:
I'm defying gravity
Rachel:
I think I'll try defying gravity
Mercedes:
And you won't bring me down
Rachel:
I'd sooner buy defying gravity
Mercedes:
Kiss me goodbye I'm defying gravity
Rachel:
I think I'll try defying gravity
Kurt:
And you won't bring me down
Rachel:
Bring me down (Mercedes: down)
Mercedes:
Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules
Of someone else's game
Rachel:
Too late for second guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
Kurt:
It's time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes and leap!
It's time to try defying gravity
Rachel:
I think I'll try defying gravity
Mercedes:
Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity
And you won't bring me down, no
Rachel:
I'm through accepting limits
'Cause someone says they're so
