Built To Last - Bell X1

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
