A bat on the edge

With a bad mind

Privately found

The best release I know

Some way to let go

I hang on to my vertigo

I hang on



A slow death ahead

Is a sad slide

Perfectly formed

To feel a fall like lead

A balcony for my bed

I hang on to my vertigo

I hang on



Spinning alone

I look down

I'm unshy on the skyline

Hiding at home

Don't you feel low

Wasting your breath

And your friends' time

Up, oh

I want to be alone

Me on a high wire



A cat on the ledge

With a bad sign

Secretly dead

It's good to look down

A one way view and so

I hang on to my vertigo

I hang on



Spinning alone

I look down

I'm unshy on the skyline

Hiding at home

Don't you feel low

Wasting your breath

And your friends' time

Up, oh

I want to be alone

Me on a high wire

Up, oh

I want to be alone

Me on a high wire



I'm over your head
