Alice Merton - Vertigo Lyrics

Alice Merton Lyrics

"Vertigo"

(1, 2, 3, 4)

Hands are sweaty
My heart beats heavy
There's something out there
But I swear, I'm not ready
And I don't really know where to go from here

The sounds getting louder
The floor starts shaking
Everybody's feeling it
Why can't I feel it? No
Why can't I just let it go?

Cause all I can feel is vertigo
All I can feel is vertigo

Gotta get outta my head
Do something that I'll regret
He's dancing now with someone he met
I'm losing my sanity
Get rid of my vanity
All I can feel is, feel is
All I can feel is vertigo

Their faces seem deadly
It just got messy
His eyes bloodshot
But he's going in steady
And I don't really know why I'm still here

And my head keeps pounding
My feet still hurting
I think I lost sight of
Where I was going
And I don't really know where to go from here

Cause all I can feel is vertigo
All I can feel is vertigo

Gotta get outta my head
Do something that I'll regret
He's dancing now with someone he met
I'm losing my sanity
Get rid of my vanity
All I can feel is, feel is
All I can feel is vertigo

Gotta get outta my head
Do something that I'll regret
He's dancing now with someone he met
I'm losing my sanity
Get rid of my vanity
All I can feel is, feel is
All I can feel is vertigo

Caught inside of a dark night out
Left me standing by myself
Under your control
Cause all I can feel is vertigo

All I can feel is, feel is
All I can feel is vertigo

Gotta get outta my head
Do something that I'll regret
He's dancing now with someone he met
I'm losing my sanity
Get rid of my vanity
All I can feel is, feel is
All I can feel is vertigo

Writer(s): Stephen Kozmeniuk, Alice Merton

"For the first time in a while I felt excited to have written a song that I couldn't wait to perform live," said Alice Merton Rolling Stone about "Vertigo". The single, produced by Koz, was inspired by waiting in line for a club. "It basically came about after Koz and I had talked about what it's like living in Berlin, the very different club scene, and my anxiety when it came to going out and being in big crowds and small spaces. I casually described a club night, where I felt out of place, and the feeling of vertigo took over. We both felt it would be fun to play around with this idea and create a dark atmosphere, supported by a driving rhythm and an almost hypnotic guitar riff." The song and its video, directed by Anuk Rohde, were released on the 8th of April 2021.
