What comes as no surprise To a jaded mind no less Insight comes from soothing grace Left to waiting days Another chord unstrummed
Our secret's safe and sound Solid now, unless it breaks in two Faithfully unbound And none of this was ever built to last
With the paleness of a less than life From a corner watching old paint dry Never once a break Into the self again An endeavor that will flat or fail What maturity comes to end Never one to face Another beat undone
Our secret's safe and sound Solid now, unless it breaks in two Faithfully unbound And none of this was ever built to last
Once again Another instant saved today Left a print that leads nowhere Never built to last What makes it work A part of life that'll make a weak heart grow Take it if you're willing to pay, willing to kill Prepared to lay it down Just know that (The prayer, the lord, the weaker, the prey) Was never ever built to last Never ever built to last
