Vertigo-go (lyrics)

I'm always on the brink of falling down.
Standing on the edge of town,
the ground moves too fast under my feet.

Open my eyes
and the room is spinning,
the ceiling's gonna fall.
When I close my eyes,
I dream like a dog.
I kick out & whimper.

Maybe I just lost my bite,
maybe I been chained up in the yard all night.
Can't say I'm used to it.

I'm always on the brink of falling down.
Standing on the edge of town,
the ground moves too fast under my feet,
and I can't get going.
Never been afraid of looking down.
The road drops out from under me
and now I'm looking in,
seeing everyone I've been,
and I'm falling.

To stay afloat, look for the horizon,
but my whole world's on a tilt
and I wish that I could trust my own two feet
'cause I'd go anywhere.
Nothing's ever as far as it seems,
I'd hit the ground running tryna chase down a dream
if only I could leave this bed.

I'm always on the brink of falling down.
Standing on the edge of town,
the ground moves too fast under my feet,
and I can't get going.
Never been afraid of looking down.
The road drops out from under me
and now I'm looking in,
seeing everyone I've been,
and I'm falling.

---

Up on the roof, I'm about to peak
The bottom looks further than I can see
Maybe it's a shortage in my circuitry
I feel like I'm always falling 30 feet.
