Suspended
Sampha Lyrics

I've been lifted by her love
Her love has brought me a sense of elevation and euphoria

I fell lifted from above
I experienced a sudden feeling of being uplifted and enlightened

I was in and out, but drowning more and more
I was in a state of fluctuation and confusion, gradually feeling overwhelmed

Sipping on red wine, I spilled it on the floor
Casually drinking red wine, I accidentally spilled it and made a mess

Then I find myself, all washed up by the shore
I discovered myself, completely stripped of my emotions and stranded by the beach

Artificial light, a glowing phone the source
The source of illumination was a glowing phone screen in a world of artificiality

It would wake me up, alarm with no remorse
It would abruptly awaken me, its alarm unapologetic

Then I find this memory when we were high abroad
Then I came across a memory of us being deeply in love and carefree in a foreign land

Round about the time that we were still unsure
Around the period when we were uncertain about our relationship

Stoppin' on this photo, I really do j'adore
Pausing on this photo, I truly adore it

The vanilla skies, we step onto the moor
Under the serene skies, we venture onto the moor

In Italy, in Florence where we walk
In Italy, specifically Florence, where we strolled together

Where the sun it shines, a yellow tint we talk
Under the radiant sun, we engage in conversations with a joyful, warm ambiance

Can we go back to how we were before?
Can we return to the state of our past relationship?

But we're not where we used to be, of course
However, we are no longer in the same place emotionally

I lost the map but still we could explore
Even though I no longer have a clear path, we can still venture into the unknown

We're going up, we're wired to the force
We're progressing and connected to a powerful energy or motivation

A force we're on course, we're, of course, we're
We are indeed on the right path and following our destined trajectory

Still a mystery the feelings I ignore
The emotions I disregard remain an enigma to me

Like running from what I've been looking for
Similar to evading something I have been actively seeking

In-between the moments, each one like sliding doors
In the transitional periods, each moment felt like an opportunity or a chance

I was in and out, time don't make sense no more
I was constantly fluctuating and now time feels disconnected and confusing

In another life, we were two birds that soared
In an alternate reality, we were like two birds flying freely and gracefully

In another life, I don't know who you are
In that different existence, I am unfamiliar with the person you have become

I'm a troubled mind, reality divorced
I possess a troubled mind and have detached from reality

When you ask me if I love you, I'm
When you inquire whether I love you, I am

Time issue, time travel
A dilemma related to time, like time travel

Back, forward, back with you
Moving backward and forward in time, back to when I was with you

Time issue, I miss you
Time itself becomes a problem, as I long for your presence

Life, issues, time
The complexities of life, coupled with temporal dilemmas
