Built To Last Songtext
von Redlight King

I′ve been to a place so cold that it steals your soul
It takes more than hope, it takes its toll
Where the fine line begins and heroes end
Where the naysayers pray and the innocent sin
Where night conquers day and fortunes fade
Where the land sharks stay and hurt won't go away
And trouble sets in and you can′t get out
'Cause there's so much fear and doubt
I′ve been beat up and broken down
And I′ve been there a thousand times
I may have walked through the worst in hell, my friend
And we all got our reasons why
I gave my life from the things I had
And it all goes by so fast
I may have walked through the worst in hell, my friend
Now I know I was built to last, built to last
I've been to a place so dark that it breaks your heart
The devil′s teeth stay sharp and they leave their mark
And everything you've built fuckin′ falls apart
If you made it this far you're right back, where you start


And people work hard and just get by
Can′t hang your head or hold it too high
No matter, what's the stake, you state your claim
And I won't live my life in vain
I′ve been beat up and broken down
And I′ve been there a thousand times
I may have walked through the worst in hell, my friend
And we all got our reasons why
I gave my life from the things I had
And it all goes by so fast
I may have walked through the worst in hell, my friend
Now I know I was built to last
Built to last, built to last, built to last
You keep rollin' on, there′s no lookin' back
You keep rollin′ on, there's no lookin′ back
Built to last, that's what it is, built to last
And you keep rollin' on, there′s no lookin′ back
You keep rollin' on, there′s no lookin' back
I′ve been beat up and broken down
And I've been there a thousand times
I may have walked through the worst in hell, my friend
And we all got our reasons why
I gave my life from the things I had
And it all goes by so fast
I may have walked through the worst in hell, my friend
Now I know I was built to last, built to last
