I hang suspended
I wait for you
And I know you're near
In this high heaven
My world's upended
I feel no passion
I feel no fear
I'm dizzy with love
But you never appear
In the gloom of this room
Of this cell down here
I know this place
Isn't truly real
And that like my love
It expands and sprays
The light will find me
Will bend toward me
Yet I'm marooned
In a billion days
I'm drunk with you
And I can't explain
Who or where I am
Or how I'm in pain
Rocking and rocking me
Rhythm is shocking me
Just like a child in your fist
You are knocking me
Rocking and rocking
Autistic, caged I am
Rocking and rocking
And rocking enraged
I am drunk with you
And I can't explain
Who or where I am
Or how I'm in pain
In the ether
In the ether
In the ether
I wait for you
Hanging in this mist
That I know's unreal
There is nothing there
There's no you, no me
Even though it's crazy
I still appeal
This is heavenly hell
I appear insane
I have no idea
Who there is to blame
In the ether I hang suspended I wait for you And I know you're near In this high heaven My world's upended I feel no passion I feel no fear I'm dizzy with love But you never appear In the gloom of this room Of this cell down here I know this place Isn't truly real And that like my love It expands and sprays The light will find me Will bend toward me Yet I'm marooned In a billion days I'm drunk with you And I can't explain Who or where I am Or how I'm in pain Rocking and rocking me Rhythm is shocking me Just like a child in your fist You are knocking me Rocking and rocking Autistic, caged I am Rocking and rocking And rocking enraged I am drunk with you And I can't explain Who or where I am Or how I'm in pain In the ether In the ether In the ether I wait for you Hanging in this mist That I know's unreal There is nothing there There's no you, no me Even though it's crazy I still appeal This is heavenly hell I appear insane I have no idea Who there is to blame Explain Request ×
