Open [Album Version] Lyrics
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)
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
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
And everybody stares
Through the windows at the streetlights
Too beautiful to see
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
Perpetually human
Suspended and open
Open
Open
Open
Your eyes
And then
(Ah)
