Dust Lyrics

It's just another day, another episode of hiding under the world
It's just another ray of merciful hope
I don't expect many more

I'm already insane
I'm already in pain

And if this time you don't rescue me, I won't blame you at all
Cause you see,
I know that I've gone in too deep for you to risk the fall!

I'm already insane (Oh yes I am)
I'm already in pain (Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes)
I'm already insane

I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!

Never thought that I would be the one with the winning hand
So you see,
It's no blow to my sophistication that I've gone crazy again

I'm already insane (Yes I am)
I'm already in pain (Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes)
I'm already insane

I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!

Already insane, already in so much pain!
Yes!

I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!

It's just another day, another episode of hiding under the world
It's just another ray of merciful hope
I don't expect many more

I'm already insane
I'm already in pain

And if this time you don't rescue me, I won't blame you at all
Cause you see,
I know that I've gone in too deep for you to risk the fall!

I'm already insane (Oh yes I am)
I'm already in pain (Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes)
I'm already insane

I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!

Never thought that I would be the one with the winning hand
So you see,
It's no blow to my sophistication that I've gone crazy again

I'm already insane (Yes I am)
I'm already in pain (Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes)
I'm already insane

I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!

Already insane, already in so much pain!
Yes!

I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!
I am dust blown away over the edge!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think he's saying that he has already fallen head-over-heels in love with this girl, and in a way, it has made him insane... He's "crazy in love," for lack of better words :) .... and he knows there is a chance that she might not 'rescue' him, but it doesnt matter... he's already gone... love has taken over...

hehe Van Hunt this is quite a interesting .

i think he mentions in this song that . He has been in some tough times through "episodes of hiding under the world. " depression sadness ...etc. ....he mentions about the rays of merciful hope .... i guess can be easily distinguished as girls he falls in loves with . And so he explains that as though the girl can save him ....he doesnt want to take the risk for the girl to fall in the deep pit that hes going through ....guessing he needs a STRONG woman to save him . lol ....so im guessing he realises that from girls perspectives...."Hes Dust Blown away over the edge " .... meaning hes taking the relationship too much for the girl can handle " .. ....wow ....talk about the princess saving the prince.
