Vertigo
The Luck Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

These dizzy heights, know what they do to me
Give me strength, make me feel like I'm living in a dream, woah,
And that's where I wanna be
Feel the air rush by as I pick up speed
Nowhere else I could go brings me to reality, woah,
And that's where I wanna be
Tell me that we're getting closer
Show me how to levitate
That's where I wanna be, high up playing with gravity,
Oh oh in vertigo, living in Vertigo.
So I stand up high, with the world beneath
Shadows fade into light as the descends on me, woah,
Take these chains off my feet, lift me up, set me free woah...
Tell me that we're getting closer
Show me how to levitate
'Cause that's where I wanna be, high up playing with gravity,
Oh Oh in vertigo, living in Vertigo
Rising up through the atmosphere
Breaking out, to the open
That's where I wanna be, high up playing with gravity, oh oh,
In Vertigo, oh, living in Vertigo.
One life, live it like you can't hide, push it to the skies, in vertigo, in vertigo
One life, live it like you can't hide, push it to the skies, in vertigo, in vertigo
High up, spread your wings and don't be afraid
Tell me that we're getting closer
Show me how to levitate
That's where I wanna be, high up playing with gravity,
Oh Oh in vertigo, living in Vertigo.
Rising up through the atmosphere
Breaking out, to the open




That's where I wanna be, high up playing with gravity, oh oh,
In Vertigo, oh, living in Vertigo.
