Everything Everything - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

We couldn't fallow the fields, we couldn't live off the yields

And so we slowly slipped away

It was a city of jade from the year it was made

Then it started to decay

But I'm still here

Lost everythin', everythin'

But I know that it will fall, the crumbling walls

And it's all that is left to me

It seems like we're in withdrawal, but so are they all

And it's all that is left to me

I write your name into stone and read it alone

And it's all that is left to me

Your love songs cover this home, but nobody knows

And it's all that is left to me

And in the temple divine, can't tell the writing from vines

But then I know just what they'll say

"Here stood a mightier kind, Tikal and Copán combined"

But then they started to decay

But I'm still here

Lost everythin', everythin'

But I know that it will fall, the crumbling walls

And it's all that is left to me

It seems like we're in withdrawal, but so are they all

And it's all that is left to me

I write your name into stone and read it alone

And it's all that is left to me

Your love songs cover this home, but nobody knows

And it's all that is left to me

I know that it will fall, the crumbling walls

And it's all that is left to me

It seems like we're in withdrawal, but so are they all

And it's all that is left to me

I write your name into stone and read it alone

And it's all that is left to me

Your love songs cover this home, but nobody knows

And it's all that is left to me
