take my hand - close my eyes

why am i tonight

feelin' so low

my poor head is spinnin' round and round and round

could it be that

by a total lack of love

in fact i'm busy

dyin'

tell me where or when

tell me how i'll go

am i invited to your dreams

i'd like to know

why i tremble and talk in my sleep

maybe only time will take away the pain

take my hand - close my eyes

lead me back into your paradise

i ain't wakin' up

i'm too tired you know

like a drifter by the side of a dusty road

what if you found me in the middle of the night

would it matter

i'm down and out alright

i am brain-dead

i'm invisible

i am drowning in a river called vertigo"
