Megan Faria Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And usually by now I woulda moved on fast
But something's different, 'bout you and me
I just can't let you go you've got this hold on me
Head is spinning I can't think straight
Vision's blurry but I still see your face
And there's nothing I can take
I miss you, I miss you
I hope you feel the same
You give me vertigo, vertigo
Up all night with no control
Of how I feel, I hope you know
You're all I want and I can't let you go
It makes me sick, but I don't care
I'd take it all to have you here
I need you more than you know
You give me vertigo
And everyone, like all my friends
They tell me that, you're not worth the stress
And I just smile, and nod my head
I would go to hell and back to be with you again
Sometimes I order your favorite drink
Just to feel you close to me I think
I need you close to me I think
I miss you, your skin too
Your body, in my bedroom
I miss you, do you miss me too
You give me vertigo, vertigo
Up all night with no control
Of how I feel, I hope you know
You're all I want and I can't let you go
It makes me sick, but I don't care
I'd take it all to have you here
I need you more than you know
You give me vertigo
Honestly, the other night
I was with another guy
But all I thought of was you
I hate myself for doing it
Yeah boy, I think I'm losing it
I'm crazy for you
You give me vertigo, vertigo
Up all night with no control
Of how I feel, I hope you know
You're all I want and I can't let you go
It makes me sick, but I don't care
I'd take it all to have you here
I need you more than you know
You give me vertigo
The lyrics to Megan Faria's song "Vertigo" depict a complex emotional struggle and a desperate longing for someone. The singer confesses that their heart has been broken in half, but despite the common expectation of moving on quickly, they find themselves unable to let go of the person who has a strong hold on them. The pain and confusion are vividly portrayed as the singer's head spins, their vision becomes blurry, yet they still see the face of the person they miss intensely.
The chorus emphasizes the overwhelming effect this person has on the singer, comparing it to vertigo. They feel a lack of control and are kept awake all night, consumed by their emotions. Despite feeling sick and recognizing the potentially detrimental impact, the singer admits they don't care and would endure anything to have this person back in their life. Their yearning for this person is intense and they express a deep need for them.
In the second verse, the singer recognizes that others may see this relationship as not worth the stress, but they dismiss those opinions, willing to go through anything to be with this person again. They also mention trying to recreate the feeling of being close to them by ordering their favorite drink. The bridge reveals a moment of vulnerability and remorse as the singer admits to being with someone else but confesses that all they could think about was the person they truly desire. They feel a strong self-hatred for their actions and admit that they may be losing control, highlighting how strong their feelings are.
