I
am
Down the road and up the hill
I wait for you still
Wires 'round my fingers
Potentially lovely
Perpetually human
Suspended and open
Open
Open
I
am
Through those woods and past the trains
I wait here in vain
Scrubbing out the stains again
Potentially lovely
Perpetually human
Suspended and open
Open
Open
In a night, the snow starts falling
And everybody stares
Through the windows at the streetlights
Too beautiful to see
I [<i>Gasp</i>]
am [<i>Gasp</i>]
In the room I've built myself [<i>Gasp</i>]
Four [<i>Gasp</i>]
straight walls [<i>Gasp</i>]
One floor [<i>Gasp</i>]
One ceiling [<i>Gasp</i>]
And day after day, I wake up feeling [<i>Gasp</i>]
Day after day, I wake up feeling
Feeling
Potentially lovely
Perpetually human
Suspended and open
Open
Open
Open
Open up
Your eyes
And then
(Ah)
