Everything for Nothing - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Head, up in the clouds

Wings of an eagle, heart of a coward

Under a spell, take down the teacher

Put on the crown, gather the gold

Well, I did what I wanted

Spinning out of control

But when, I give all I have in vain

It doesn't matter what I build if it crumbles down anyway

And though I rise up before the day

I'm doing everything for nothing just to prove I got what it takes

But it's fake, I fade

Hand, tight to the plough

All for some pleasure

But it's wearing me down

Lulled by a lie

Won’t find something better

Then what’s already found

But when, I give all I have in vain

It doesn't matter what I build if it crumbles down anyway

And though I rise up before the day

I'm doing everything for nothing just to prove I got what it takes

But it’s fake, I can’t escape

I’m getting tied up, I want to give up

I don’t wanna fade, can’t be erased

I gotta open up, gonna give You all my love

Everything it takes, I don’t wanna fade

I don’t wanna waste anymore, I’ve opened up my hands, You got it all

I don’t wanna fade, 'cause when I fade, I’m falling faster and faster

When, I give all I have in vain

It doesn't matter what I build if it crumbles down anyway

And though I rise up before the day

I'm doing everything for nothing just to prove I got what it takes

But it's fake

I fade
