Vertigo
Raia Was Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Keeping my eyes in, making me dizzy though (vertigo).
When I run out of options, I get hysterical,
keeping me locked in, giving me vertigo (vertigo).
(Are you?) feeling it all at once, feeling it all
giving me vertigo.
Giving me all I want, giving me all, giving me all,
giving me vertigo (vertigo).
Feeling it all at once giving me vertigo.
Giving me all i want, giving me all, giving me all
giving me vertigo.
But it hurts when I cull it, turn my back and desert it
(little call out for my writing, banished for my liking).
When I love it I call it and I can't deserve it
(my true love is shock high, when I love we all die).
I'm riding the current, and I'm hurdling through it
(little call out for the right thing, banished for my liking).
Wanna talk like I mean it but I don't deserve it, no I don't deserve it. I don't deserve it.
Heart like a riot, I'm emotional.
Keeping my eyes in, making me dizzy though.
When I run out of options, I get hysterical.
Running the clock and giving me vertigo.
Running the clock and giving me vertigo.
Feeling it all at once
feeling it all, feeling it all
giving me vertigo.
Giving me all I want
giving me all that I want
leave me lonely though, vertigo
(whatever I do, hey).
Feeling it all at once
feeling it all,
giving me vertigo.
Giving me all I want
giving me all that I want
leave me lonely though, vertigo
(whatever I do, hey).
Feeling it all at once
feeling it all,
giving me vertigo.
Giving me all I want
giving me all that I want
leave me lonely though, vertigo
(whatever I do, hey).
Feeling it all at once
feeling it all,
giving me vertigo.
Giving me all I want
giving me all that I want
leave me lonely though, vertigo
(whatever I do, hey).
Feeling it all at once
feeling it all,
giving me vertigo.
Giving me all I want
giving me all that I want
leave me lonely though, vertigo.
