A Bolt of Lightning II

cinema_babeOkay, so I woke up and it's still true, I'm going to grad school! Also, I guess that I am as smart as ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
savethewave says I am (at least in an academic sense) as I got into all 4 of the schools I applied to and they are some rather picky programs.
Okay time for the MySpace portion of our program.
I heard this song last night about an hour after I found out about grad school and now it's an earworm that bored its way into my brain. I always thought that it captured a bit of how I felt about starting over at this point in my life. I thought I'd be in mid stream by now and here I am at the start of the race, again.
And I like it. (It *is* frustrating sometime, but I like it.)
And yes I know it's a John Meyer tune but indulge me, okay?......
Bigger Than My Body
This is a call to the color-blind
This is an IOU
I'm stranded behind a horizon line
Tried to be something true
Yes, I'm grounded
Got my wings clipped
I'm surrounded (by)
All this pavement
Guess I'll circle
While I'm waiting
For my fears to dry
Someday I'll fly
Someday I'll soar
Someday I'll be something much more
Cause I'm bigger than my body gives me credit for
Why is it not the time?
What is there more to learn?
I've shed this skin that I've been chipping at
And I've never quite returned
Yes, I'm grounded
Got my wings clipped
I'm surrounded (by)
All this pavement
Guess I'll circle
While I'm waiting
For my fears to dry
Someday I'll fly
Someday I'll soar
Someday I'll be something much more
Cause I'm bigger than my body gives me credit for
Cause I'm bigger than my body now
Maybe I'll tangle in the power lines
And it might be over in a second's time
But I'll gladly go down in a flame
If the flame's what it takes to remember my name
Yes, I'm grounded
Got my wings clipped
I'm surrounded (by)
All this pavement
Guess I'll circle
While I'm waiting
For my fears to dry
Wait for my fears to dry
Someday I'll fly
Someday I'll soar
Someday I'll be something much more
Cause I'm bigger than my body
I'm bigger than my body
I'm bigger than my body now
