Vértigo
Kisnou feat. Amethyst Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I falter on your alibis
I understand what you mean
In this way, the lines that we tread upon
Make themselves very discrete

I take it all off for you
I let it go
Though these mistakes leave me in vertigo

But you don't know
Do you know?
Do you know?

When you came to show me all the ropes
And watched me grab hold on my own
(I'm in the mood, it's all for you)

I think I'd know
But am I sure?

I can't control
No I can't control you
The things I know
Do I really know you?

Who have you chose
To stand as your martyr?

To prove purposeful
In courses uncharted

Line by Line Meaning

I falter on your alibis
I become uncertain about your excuses and explanations

I understand what you mean
I comprehend your intentions and motives

In this way, the lines that we tread upon
In this manner, the paths we walk on

Make themselves very discrete
Become distinct and separate

I take it all off for you
I reveal everything to you

I let it go
I release my burdens

Though these mistakes leave me in vertigo
However, my errors cause me to feel disoriented and dizzy

But you don't know
However, you are not aware

Do you know?
Are you actually informed?

When you came to show me all the ropes
When you arrived to instruct me in the ways of the world

And watched me grab hold on my own
And witnessed me take control on my own
