What came as no surprise

What came as no surprise 
To a jaded mind no less 
Insight comes to soothing grace 
Left to waiting days
..another chord unstrummed 

Our secret's safe and sound
Solid now unless it breaks in two 
Faithfully unbound 
None of this was ever built to last 

In the paleness of a less than life 
From a corner watching old paint dry
Never once a break 
Into the self again 
An endeavour that will flat our 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 
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 
part of life that makes the weak hearts grow 
Take it in if you're willing to say 
Willing to do 
Prepared to lay it down
Just know this
It was never built to last
