Everything for Nothing Songtext
von Citizens

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, tied to the plow
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


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

I fade
But it′s fake
