We Were Never Built To Last

You’re on your own now
We’re tired of lending hands
Our new agenda
It cuts you from all our plans
So get in line, boy
And keep that mouth of yours closed
Don’t need opinions
Just work them hands to bones

We stood in place and
Watched them tear us apart
They cut us open
And ripped out all our parts
But we kept quiet
We let them have their way
We made our point by
Having nothing to say

We all broke up right on cue
We’ll take you down with us too

You’d better jump ship
This bastard is sinking fast
There’s nothing to save here
Our worth has all but passed
The muddy waters
Are slipping in through the cracks
The ship, the ship, the ship is sinking
The ship, the ship, the ship is sinking

We sit on our hands
And watch it all fall
No one blinks an eye
There’s not much worth saving
Just lots of buildings
And concrete colored skies

But then you came and picked us up
You combed our hair
Made us look like people
And we learned to feed ourselves again
We built some homes
Filled them full of clones

But we won’t wait 'til you get back
We’ll be gone long before you arrive
We were never built to last
But we’d like to tell you

Thanks for the good time
It was nice to have known you
We’ll all be just fine
And we’ll try to write you
We appreciate the lies
But we’re done believing you
