Vertigo
Rob Gasser Laura Brehm Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Giving up, letting go
Times we might feel compelled
Looking down from the heights that we have built all by ourselves
And there is fear of the unknown
But we cannot lose control
When we feel like the world is against us

We are trying to find ourselves without the defining words
We can no longer hold onto what only makes us hurt
We cannot sink into the dark
The vertigo is getting sharp
There is something greater than ourselves that we must reach for

Ooh, into the infinite, that we must reach
Ooh, into the infinite, that we must reach
Ooh, into the infinite, that we must reach
Ooh, into the infinite, that we must reach

Now which way do we go, is the question to ask
There are so many choices that it′s hard not to look past
What is real and what is fake
And the risk we have to take
Will we know what is throwing off our balance?

We are trying to find ourselves without the defining words
We can no longer hold onto what only makes us hurt
We cannot sink into the dark
The vertigo is getting sharp
There is something greater than ourselves that we must reach for

Ooh, into the infinite, that we must reach
Ooh, into the infinite, that we must reach




Ooh, into the infinite, that we must reach
Ooh, into the infinite, that we must reach

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Vertigo" by Rob Gasser & Laura Brehm depict the struggle of trying to find oneself without relying on external factors. The song talks about the fear of the unknown and the difficulty of finding one's way when faced with so many choices. The opening lines "Giving up, letting go, times we might feel compelled" suggest that the singer is at a point of transition or change, possibly letting go of something in order to move forward.


The line "Looking down from the heights that we have built all by ourselves" speaks to the idea that the singer has achieved something significant, but is now facing the challenge of figuring out what comes next. The fear of the unknown and the risk that comes with making choices are highlighted through the lines "What is real and what is fake, and the risk we have to take, will we know what is throwing off our balance?".


The chorus amplifies this sentiment, with the singer acknowledging that there is something greater than ourselves that we must strive for. The repeated refrain "Ooh, into the infinite, that we must reach" suggests a desire to move beyond our current situation and find something more meaningful.


Overall, "Vertigo" explores the challenges of finding one's way in an uncertain world, where our own perceptions and the pressures of society can be overwhelming. The song suggests that it is only by reaching beyond ourselves and striving for something greater that we can overcome these challenges and find our true path.
