Lyrics Built To Last - Bell X1

Built To Last

What’s sure to get you by
Is to avoid the common lie
That we’re under starters
Starters orders
She lost her nerve the last day
Distractions in the cross-hairs
Still under starters,
Misunderstanding Orders
We’re made like the past
We were built to last
Night time is the wrong time
To be with the thoughts you fear
They drag their nails and rattle
Their chains
See the people walk so slow
Moving statues of heavy stone
Illusions for the non-believer
Or just a shadow thrown
We’re made like the past
We were built to last
Words don’t move her
She’s moving on, she’s moving on.
And he can’t drown out the
Distant drone
Every morning he wakes and
Starts again
Is this all that you’ve done?
Speeding lights and runways
Spit her out into a new day
And the bullet you dodged
Will soon be lodged in another heart
We’re made like the past
We were built to last
They don’t make us like they used to
We can’t stand the test of time
