Vertigo Lyrics

You're scared of heights, that's vertigo
You wanted lights, go see a show
You ran away, that's touch and go
You're scared of love, well, aren't we all?
Well, aren't we all?
Yeah, well, aren't we all?

I know that you started to feel what I feel
I could tell 'cause you took my hand by the wheel
But you couldn't dare to make it real
Oh, it's such a shame (you left it here)

And I wasn't asking for a lifetime
I was just asking you to take my hand
Just for a minute or a night
Was it too much to ask?

You're scared of heights, that's vertigo
You wanted lights, go see a show
You ran away, that's touch and go
You're scared of love, well, aren't we all?
You felt alive, that's chemical
You felt secure, that's called a home
Couldn't take the heat, that's Mexico
You're scared of love, well, aren't we all?
Well, aren't we all?
(Well, aren't we all?)

I thought that I could be the one to change you
I thought that I could be the one to prove
I'm used to fixing broken things before
I thought maybe I could fix you too

I wasn't asking for a lifetime
I was just asking you to take my hand
For just a minute or a night
Was it too much to ask?

You're scared of heights, that's vertigo
You wanted lights, go see a show
You ran away, that's touch and go
You're scared of love, well, aren't we all?
You felt alive, that's chemical
You felt secure, that's called a home
Couldn't take the heat, that's Mexico
You're scared of love, well, aren't we all?

Said, "Don't look down" and then you do
You put your past on me and you
Think you got problems, I have too
You ran from love, that's nothing new

You're scared of heights, that's vertigo
You wanted lights, go see a show
You ran away, that's touch and go
You're scared of love, well, aren't we all?
Well, aren't we all? Yeah

You're scared of heights, that's vertigo
You wanted lights, go see a show
You ran away, that's touch and go
You're scared of love, well, aren't we all?
Well, aren't we all?

What is the Meaning of Vertigo?

Exploring the complexities of emotional vulnerability, this track delves into the fear of falling in love. The song's protagonist expresses frustration and disappointment as their partner struggles with commitment, symbolized by 'vertigo' or a fear of heights. The lyrics cleverly use various metaphors to depict feelings of insecurity, escapism, and the thrill that love can bring, only to be met with resistance out of fear. Despite these challenges, there is an underlying desire for connection and understanding which is articulated through the plea for their partner to simply take their hand. It's a poignant reminder that navigating relationships can often be fraught with apprehension but ultimately, it's a universal experience we all share.
