Stephen Schwartz
Defying Gravity (Season 5 Version)
[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
[KURT]
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

[MERCEDES]
Well, if that's love, it comes at
At much too high a cost

I'd sooner buy defying gravity

[RACHEL]
Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity

[KURT]
I think I'll try defying gravity

[MERCEDES]
And you won't bring me down
I'd sooner buy defying gravity

[RACHEL]
Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity
[KURT]
I think I'll try defying gravity

[RACHEL]
And you won't bring me down

[MERCEDES]
Bring me down
