At the top of the mountain, it's lonely
Staring at the horizon, and thinking
Where the hell am I heading to now? There's only
One way out and it's scaring me now, I'm sinking
Vertigo
Vertigo
Well the way up is hard and unrelenting
Got the bit in your teeth and…....the path is
Clear as day as you battle away, ascending
Don't look back there is nothing to see, just dead bodies
Vertigo
Vertigo
Take your seat at the pinnacle, so what next?
Fighting off all the challengers, them barbarians
Don't look down it's a long way to fall...it makes you
Sick when you think of the cost of it all, but you go again
Vertigo
Vertigo
Are you scared of falling? Do you dream about it?
Do your nightmares wake you? In the middle of the night?
Just let go, you can soar like an eagle, there is no shame
Find your way to the peace of the valley, just quit the game
Vertigo
Vertigo
Give it up and move over, hand down the crown
You can't go on forever, but you can escape from
Vertigo
Vertigo
At the top of the mountain (vertigo)
At the top of the mountain (vertigo)
At the top of the mountain (vertigo)
At the top of the mountain (vertigo)
