Vertigo
Death and All His Friends Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A public enemy
You could say I'm the one
Under the sun
The road in front of me
Catch me if you can
I'm on my way
You're starting to think I'm crazy though
I'm on my way to Mexico
I got no blood in my veins
Just vertigo
I'm a loaded gun
One thing I'll guarantee
I'll never die young
No never
And I ain't the one
You shouldn't fuck with me
I'm not making any plans
Just blowing in the wind
This town is full of ghosts
It's full of ghosts
Some people say they let you in
But I won't, I won't, I won't
I'm on my way
I need to go
You're starting to think I'm crazy though
I'm on my way to Mexico
I got no blood in my veins
Just vertigo
I'm on my way
I need to go
I'm starting to think I'm crazy though
I'm on my way
I need to go
I need to go
You're starting to think I'm crazy though
I'm crazy though
I'm on my way to Mexico
I got no blood in my veins
Just vertigo
I'm on my way
And I need to go
Starting to think
I'm crazy though
I'm crazy though
I'm on my way to Mexico
I got no blood in my veins
Just vertigo
