See How We Fall - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

The eternal hopelessness of being

Forever looking but never seeing

You think you have it, but then it's gone

We are dying the day we're born

See how we fall

See how we crawl

These days, these dreams – what joy they bring?

Beyond good and evil, such sweet things

To each, to all there comes the cost

Even those that win find they have lost

See how we fall

See how we crawl

We who become and overcome

We who swim amongst the drowned

We who fall and fall forever

And never, never hit the ground

See how we fall

See how we crawl

Oh, you spilt a million words

About honor, about sin

Then slowly realizing

That they don't mean a thing

See how we fall

See how we crawl

See how we fall

See how we crawl
