Suspended - Matt Nathanson

When you lead me

And fit around my tongue

It’s so easy, to forget that I’m lost

Spent all of my life

Waiting for answers

To lift me, to numb me, to define it all

Sunshine, I’m beginning to like this

Cause all I want to be is the minute that you hold me in

When you pretend that I’m all that you waited for

Time slips to nothing and I’m better than I’ve ever been

I’m suspended

With your breathing, filling up my lungs

I can almost believe that I’m almost enough

Spent all of my life emptied of anthems

And bracing for something that never did come

Sunshine, I’m beginning to like this

Sunshine, I’m beginning to like it

Cause all I want to be is the minute that you hold me in

When you pretend that I’m all that you waited for

Time slips to nothing and I’m better than I’ve ever been

I’m suspended

It’s not enough to stay surrounded

It’s not enough to stay awake, torn, braced, cornered

And not feel alive

Sunshine, I’m beginning to like this

Sunshine, I’m beginning to like it

Cause all I want to be is the minute that you hold me in

When you pretend that I’m all that you waited for

Time slips to nothing and I’m better than I’ve ever been

I’m suspended

I’m suspended

I’m suspended
