Vertigo

If you could notice me now, would you see

All the envy behind those eyes they told endless lies

And after all, the view's still black and white

It's black and white

Is it within where you'd absolve my sins

And measure up the way that I have lived

With all my good intentions?

So every now and then

I'll think of why it had to end

It came and went

Like a match that burnt at both ends

Save your breath, we only get so many chances

And after all we've been through

I always knew it would end with you

And I, what good am I?

And I've known this all my life

It's like you say "There's no easy way to escape"

Rest assured I'm self medicated out the front door

Is it within where you'd absolve my sins

And measure up the way that I have lived

With all my good intentions?

So every now and then

I'll think of why it had to end

It came and went

Like a match that burnt at both ends

It burnt at both ends

I'm self medicating

Save your breath, we only get so many chances

And after all we've been through

I always knew it would end with you

Save your breath, we only get so many chances

And after all we've been through

I always knew it would end with you

Is it within where you'd absolve my sins

And measure up the way that I have lived

With all my good intentions?

So every now and then

I'll think of why it had to end

It came and went

Like a match that burnt at both ends
