Lyrics Not for Nothing - Guster

Not for Nothing

Sooner or later
Everything I have I’ll lose
If not for nothing
Phasing and fading
Only got one chance to prove
It’s not for nothing
Goddamned, you too
I’m all about it, only got one chance to prove
Then I’ll be nothing
Shut down, detuned
Then soon forgotten
So what have I got to lose?
It is unstoppable
We’re space, we’re time
We’re poltergeists
We’re born, we die
Our stars explode to afterlife
We’re lovers, we’re foes
We’re bells, we toll
We seemed so high
Just babes in flight in the afterlife
One more drop of gasoline
To the devil and the dirt, the violent dream
Oh don’t you feel the light you bring but there’s a storm outside
A storm outside
Of all the times and all the scenes
I’m lucky to be whole and I’m lucky to be free
I’ve gotta go outside
But there’s a storm outside
A storm outside
Goddamned, you too
I’m all about it, only got one chance to prove
Then I’ll be nothing
Shut down, detuned
Then soon forgotten
So what have I got to lose?
It is unstoppable
Goddamned, you
(We're space, we’re time
We’re poltergeists)
I’m all about it, only got one chance to prove
(We're born, we die, our stars)
Then I’ll be nothing
Shut down, detuned
(We're lovers, we’re foes
We’re bells, we toll)
Then soon forgotten
(We seemed so high, just babes in flight)
So what have I got to lose?
It’s not for nothing
Sooner or later
With everything I have to lose
It’s not for nothing
Phasing then fading
Only got one chance to prove
We are unstoppable
