Built To Last

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
