Built To Last

I've been to a place so cold, it steals your soul
 It takes more than hope, it takes its toll
 Where the fine line begins and heroes end
 Where the nay sayers pray and the innocent sin
 Where night conquers day and fortunes fade
 The land sharks stay and hurt won't go away
 When 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 for the things I had
 And it all flies 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 do dark, it breaks you heart
 The devil's teeth stay sharp and they leave their mark
 And everything you've built, [bad word]  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 at stake, you stake 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 for the things I had
 And it all flies 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,
 I'm 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 for the things I had
 And it all flies by so fast
 I may have walked through the worst in hell my friend
 Now I know I was built to last
 I was built to last
 Built to last, I'm built to last
 Built to last
 Built to last,
 I'm built to last
 It all flies away,
 It all flies away so fast
 It all flies away,
 It all flies away so fast
