That gentle voice of his
Could tear a mountain apart
Instead he used it to say
I could just break the pills with my hand
Fast forward eight months in
My fingers shake so much
I had no choice but to use my fangs
To bite the meds in halves
And I feel vertigo, my dear
‘Cause I thought we were kids
But kids, they’re not supposed to know
How to deal with this
Vertigo, my dear
‘Cause I thought we were kids
But kids, they’re not supposed to know
How to deal with this
“I went spiralling down
Back in August or so
But I’m good at pretending”
She said
“That it just comes and goes
Put on a nicotine patch
Then go back to war”
And I don’t want to die
But I don’t want to live
“as a f#cking trauma for life”
And I feel vertigo, my dear
‘Cause i thought we were kids
But kids, they’re not supposed to know
How to deal with this
Vertigo, my dear
‘Cause I thought we were kids
But kids, they’re not supposed to know
How to deal with this

When she was nine or ten
She had her whole death planned
White clothes from feet to head
Matter-of-factly said
I was the first to know
I should be proud
I am
Guess ‘cause I understand
The vertigo, my dear
That comes from knowing we’re kids
But kids, they’re not supposed to know
How to deal with this
And yet, us kids, we do
Yet we play barefoot on the grass
We still send postcards for Christmas
And still dream of becoming stars
Yes, I would feel vertigo, my dear
If you weren’t here
But you’re, you’re here
You light up the rooftop
The sky of Madrid
I’m glad you never did it
I’m glad you heard that song
I’m glad that you could met me and now
We listen to our own
‘Cause we never were kids
Oh, oh, we were never kids
But we will be
