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
