Vertigo

My mind is reeling, my head is spinning,
I've reached the highest heights,
I don't wanna look down,
I'm standing on the edge, no-one to push me,
This is no leap of faith,
If I hit the ground.

Standing closer to the edge... 'Trust me',
Feel the wind take your breath...
'Take the step',
Close your eyes and take the step...
'Just one more step',
Wipe the slate of life's regrets... 'Do it!' away.

Feels like I'm falling, but going nowhere,
I feel the blood rush, into my brain,
I fall in silence, and someone's screaming,
But I'm still standing, I don't feel no pain.

Standing closer to the edge... 'Trust me',
Feel the wind take your breath...
'Take the step',
Close your eyes and take the step...
'Just one more step',
Wipe the slate of life's regrets... 'Do it!' away.

It's not the falling that'll kill you,
It's the sudden stop.
I fall but there's no screaming,
I've lived a lifetime in the second
Since I started to drop,
Surreal, it's like I'm dreaming,
I took the step, I wasn't ready,
Now there's nowhere to go,
I'm gone and no one's grieving.

Nobody warns you of the feeling,
When you're out of control.

Standing closer to the edge,
Feel the wind take your breath,
Feel the wave of life's regrets,
One more chance is all you get,
Standing closer to the edge...
(If you think you can beat this),
Feel the wind take your breath...
(When it spirals out of control),
Close your eyes and take the step...
(Think again and rule your head),
Wipe the slate of life's regret...
(Cos I will rule your soul). Away.

It's not the falling that'll kill you,
It's the sudden stop.
I fall but there's no screaming,
I've lived a lifetime in the second
Since I started to drop,
Surreal, it's like I'm dreaming,
I took the step, I wasn't ready,
Now there's nowhere to go,
I'm gone and no one's grieving.

Nobody warns you of the feeling,
When you're out of control.

Roll me over and turn me around,
I'll keep spinning 'til I hit the ground.
