Vertigo

Billie Myers Vertigo Lyrics
1.Am I Here Yet?

Theres got to be more to this, the future
- theres got to be more to this
Sitting around in my imagination
Using someone elses logic for loose change.
Where the speed of light isnt always fast enough
So could you hurry up and get another life, if you please

You wear a suit, i wear a smile, you yellow taxi the 4 minute
mile
I'll be your driver if you'll be my ride
Your financial advisor, me and my hitchhikers guide

Wrote a letter to the future, asking for directions
It came back to me, return to sender, there i go
Am i here yet, am i here yet, am i?
Theres got to be more to this

My emotional bends are doing somersaults
My head is where my feet should be, on the ground
I chose the path of most resistance
Had to be different, made my mark but then i crossed the lines
You read between

Pardon you, oh excuse me, you left your manners at the pleasant
trees
Blind ambition is so hard to please
Look at me, ive been told i'm exceptionally ordinary

Wrote a letter to the future asking for directions
It came back to me, return to sender
There i go, am i here yet,
Theres got to be more to this, theres got to be more to this

Straight ahead, always forward, change direction
Nobodys looking. draw a circle and stand in the middle
Touch the sides, they're never ending, they're never ending

Wrote a letter to the future asking for directions
It came back to me return to sender
There i go, am i here yet

The future, theres got to be more to this

Dont wanna be rich, dont wanna be poor, dont wanna to be a bitch
Im not asking for more, you'd settle for less, im happy like
this
Dont you wanna get a life

Dont wanna be a victim of fashion, a plastic sensation
A hippie chick coke fiend, higher than an astronaut
Lower than a politician, leave your name and number in the bin,
the has bin


2.Should I Call You Jesus?

Religions all around the world
Every man, every woman
Every want to be martyr
We have to learn, to learn
The way we need to live together

If the planet earth stopped revolving
Would religion really matter anymore?
And if jerusalem began dissolving
You see the man from salt lake city
At your door

I believe
I believe
That there so much more
Than we can see
I believe
I believe
That there more to life
There's more to life than this

Should i call you jesus?
Or should i call you buddha
Don you know jehovah
He read the kabbala
Should i talk to allah?
Does it really matter?
God is god
By any god given name

If the vatican built all the temples
Would confession drive the innocent insane?
And if charity organized religion
Would there be wealth enough
To chant away the day

I believe
I believe
That there's more to life
There's more to life than this

Should i call you jesus?
Or should i call you buddha
Don you know jehovah?
He read the kabbala
Should i talk to allah?
Does it really matter?
God is god
By any god given name

Some people, some people
Say he won't answer
I say that the question should change

(solo)

Our father who art in heaven
Ancient omnipresent
Hallowed be thy name
Legendary reincarnation
Chameleon of faith
Untruth man made
Our father who art in heaven
If i get your name wrong
Will you turn me away?

Should i call you jesus?
Or should i call you buddha
Don you know jehovah?
He read the kabbala
Should i talk to allah?
Does it really matter?
God is god
By any god given name
Religion isn't hate
Religion isn't war
Genocide, brutal or cruel

It doesn't kill
Discriminate
It isn't vicious
And it doesn't violate

It isn't massacre
Bloodshed
Conflict or slaughter

Barbaric terror
Barbaric torture
Tyranny
Dictatorship
Or fear

Religions all around the world
Every man, every woman
Every want to be martyr
We have to learn, to learn
The way we need to live together

I ask only one question
Should i call you jesus?
Does it really matter?

Come over here and have a beer!


3.Vertigo

Pain myself into the corner, a thousand miles from here and now,
No reflections into hold me down, let's look around, do i
belong?
Space electric blue is calling, a northern star on my credit
line,
Running short of it or borrow time you blow my mind, out of
control

I feel my ship is sinking yeah i'm giving in,
Afraid to fly afraid to fall in love,
On a kaleidoscope of rollercoasters,
I won't look down 'cos fear i've met,
Takes me to an all-time love, on a mountain of, i don't know

You give me vertigo

Sleeping satellites are waking, turning cycles in my head,
Information highway leave me ashtray , it's ok,
But i don't wanna know where i'm going 'til i get there

I feel my ship is sinking yeah i'm giving in,
Afraid to fly afraid to fall in love,
On a kaleidoscope of rollercoasters,
I won't look down 'cos fear i've met,
Takes me to an all-time love,
You give me vertigo

Oooohhh
Something????
? i'm crushlanding on the cloud blue, so let's leave this plane,
skydive away,
Skydive away

I feel my ship is sinking yeah i'm giving in,
Afraid to fly afraid to fall in love,
On a kaleidoscope of rollercoasters,
I won't look down 'cos fear i've met,
Takes me to an all-time love, on a mountain of, i don't know
Don't let go, oh no, it's vertigo, oh oh no, no, don't let me
go, oh oh no,
Take me, take me, take me


4.Without My Consent?


5.A Room Full Of View

There was no room for me in a room full of you,
There were doors all around, but i couldn't find the keys,
When we ran out of air, we didn't know what to do,
Suffocated by love in a room with no view,
Am i sorry? oh yeah, i'm sorry
But why do i feel so sorry, when i'm not really sure,
When i'm not really sure what i'm sorry for

(chorus - oh, i tried to tell you a thousand times,
That we both needed space to find some peace of mind,
But i could have made you happy
No you know how hard i tried - you know i tried,
I gave you everything, i didn't think twice, and i lost myself
in the sacrifice
No, i could have made you happy, how with every breath, i died
'cos there's no room for me in a room full of you)

In between all the noise - silence build a china wall
We build it up to the sky, throwing stones to watch them fall
Did i hurt you? you know i didn't mean to
Then i tried too hard not to love you, like i could've cared
less,
Well, i could've, well i couldn't, no i couldn't care more

(chorus)

I said i didn't love you,
Did you know i lied, i lied, i lied, - say goodbye
Still i need you, still i need you
I said i gave you everything, i didn't think twice
And i lost myself in the sacrifice,
No, i couldn't make you happy, how in every breath - i died
'cos there's no room, no theres no room for me in a room full of
you

The doors are closing now, i'm walking out
'cos there's no room for me in a room full of you,
And there's no room left for you, for me, goodbye goodbye

I'd like to say i don't love you but that would be a lie


6.Flexible

(jane jane james bond)

Everybody's stuck in the middle,
With something for nothing.
Original is nothing new.
Everybody stares in the mirror,
Looking for a partner,
Let's look for something better to do.

She's james bond in a dress.
Diamonds forever are all she wears.
Loaded and ready to go,
Riding her car like diva desire.
Walking the mermaid in fine hike boots.
Someone's wife that he met on the phone.
She's user-friendly.
She's taken it home.

Chorus
He's gay, he's straight.
He's black and he's white.
He'll be anything she wants him to be tonight,
And a little bit more.
Loverboy to lovergirl,
He's flexible.
She's loveable.
He's flexible
. i'm flexible tonight.
(jane jane james bond)
(jane jane james bond)
(jane jane james bond)

Verse two
I'm an angel dressed in drag.
Dream of the nightmares,
You wish you'd had.
Inside out.
When you're gravity free,
You don't have to shout.

Chorus
I'm gay, i'm straight.
I'm black and i'm white.
I'll be anything you want me to be tonight,
And a little bit more.
Loverboy to lovergirl,
I'm flexible.
She's loveable.
He's flexible,
Adorable, tonight.
(jane jane james bond)
Tonight.
(jane jane james bond)
Tonight.
(jane jane james bond)
(jane jane james bond)

Interlude
I'll be your father, your mother,
Or teacher, a lover.
From sinner, confesser.
A naked cross-dresser,
Who looks like the preacher.
Barbie in leather.
I'll even be your three speed vibrator.

Verse three
She's james bond in a dress.
Diamonds forever are all she wears.
Sensational. incredible.
Remarkable. remarked upon.
She's flexible. flexible.
He's straight.
Yeah

Chorus
She's gay, she's straight.
She's black and she's white.
She'll be anything you want her to be tonight,
And a little bit more.
Loverboy to lovergirl,
I'm's flexible.
She's loveable.
He's flexible,
Adorable, tonight.

Ending
Repeated {(jane jane james bond)
Throughout (are you flexible tonight?)}

Don't you know,
The world is not enough.
He's a tuxedo angel, crossdressing tonight.


7.Where Romeo Never Dies

Romeo never dies
Love letters from shakespeare, handwritten just last year
The meanings gone, but the point's still clear
Well, im unfashionably tongue-tied, on a tightrope of fine line
Be careful,read the warning signs

Im gonna make you jealous, im gonna make you nervous
Im gonna make you wish you'd never started this
I'm gonna make you anxious, oh so anxious
You'll be safely insecure with me

Where romeo never dies, and juliet - she never cries
When you think its all over, i'll look with a smile
Cos romeo never dies, romeo never dies

You're regrettably inclined to my dangerously safe side
Sometimes i walk where the sun dont shine
But if something is certain, then the waiting is no fun
So dont melt the ice i'm walking on

Im gonna make you jealous, i'm gonna make you nervous
I'm gonna make you wish you'd never started this
Im gonna make you anxious, oh so anxious
You'll be safely insecure with me

Where romeo never dies, and juliet never cries
Just when you think its over, i'll lookup with a smile
'cos romeo never dies, romeo never dies
Oh no, romeo never, never, never, never lies, perfectly floored
by you

Im gonna make you jealous, im gona me you nervous
Im goname you wish you never started this

Where romeo never dies, and juliet - she never cries (oh no)
When you think it's over, i'll look up with a smile
'cos romeo never dies, romeo never dies (oh no)

Romeo never cries, not even here
Satisfaction, thats the death of desire
Satisfaction, thats the death of desire
I'm jealous, i'm nervous, it's ok
Sometimes being bad feels good
Satisfaction, satisfaction, satisfaction is the death of desire


8.Never Let Them See You Cry

Never let them see you cry
Because tears will lead you nowhere
And nowhere walks a long and lonely road

Never let the liquid edges fall
Through the cracks of self doubt
Even if the doors are wide open
Assume the room is dark

So if misery likes company
Then why am i alone?
It's cold outside this double bed
Inside a single room

So never let them see you cry

You walked away and left me numb

Rock bottom took the fall
But i'd rather feel the pain
Than nothing at all

So if misery likes company
Then why am i alone?
It's cold outside this double bed
Inside a single room

So never let them see you cry
So never let them see you cry
So never let them see you cry
So never let them see you cry

Vamp out


9.Roll Over Beethoven


10.Afraid Of Spiders

There is a chance, that i won't repeat the lessons that i've
learnt
Instead i'll make the same mistakes. pretend for me, dont prove
me wrong
I broke my legs fallings, so now i'm standing still when this
pain don't hurt, i'll stop holding on
I'll hit and run, pouring diamond clouds and cobwebs reign the
sky, in spite of that i'll stay dry
I'll keep hanging on your threads,still afraid of spiders.

There is a liar inside my head, thats scared to death to face
the truth
Is this a one way street of promises
You'll have to lie to keep
I'm broken wide open, your safety catch is on
And as my hunger feeds, i can barely breath
Sweet suicide, the black widow drains the blood of butterflies
Survivals living proof that keeps me hanging on your threads
Still afraid of spiders
Is there more to love than simply because, 'cos pain can hurt it
he name of love
Simply because it does
So, if i kiss you now, would kiss me back
Pour the diamond clouds and cobwebs from the sky
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

I'm afraid to let go, afraid to be alone
Afraid to give, afraid to own
Im still hanging on your threads, hanging on your threads
Hanging on your threads, still afraid of spiders
Afraid of spiders

Oh, i'm afraid to let you go, i'm afraid to watch you go
Say it, wont you say it? say it, say you love me still,
Oh, i'm afraid to watch you go, why won't you say it? say you
love me still,
Oh, i'm afraid


11.Bitter Fruit

Bitter fruit hangs under the care of the skeleton tree
Its roots rest above the settling dust
Which will rise and fall, only this time will not return

Bitter fruit dead weight, this world must change

The name on your grave, was it born of you?
Handcuffed, held down by an iron tattoo,
Burning a cross in honour of you,
Blood stained tears run acid yellow

In the shade of the skeleton tree

Bloodshot eyes blind a motherless child, more dead than alive
Left drowning for breath, silent screams fill the air
With mercy on your lips, death became an angel in your grace

Bitter fruit dead weight, this world must change
Bitter fruit dead weight, this world must change

The name on your grave, was it born of you?
Handcuffed, held down by an iron tattoo,
Burning a cross in honour of you,
Blood stained tears run acid yellow

In the shade of the skeleton tree

In the scope of time, it was only yesterday ago
So lets change, lets change tomorrow

Bitter fruit dead weight
Bitter fruit dead weight
Bitter fruit dead weight, the future can't wait..
Bitter fruit dead weight

Somebodys looking down, somebodys looking down, somebodys
looking down
