[Intro] [Atmospheric distorted guitar, distant feedback, gradually building drums] [Male 1 - restrained, almost whispered] Red lights… No brakes… Here we go again. [Verse 1 - Male 1] There’s a bottle rolling round the backseat Another missed call on the phone We said we’d never make the same mistakes But we keep making them on our own There’s a photograph beneath the dashboard Of a life we thought we’d have someday Now the only thing that’s certain Is we’re getting further lost along the way [Pre-Chorus - Male 1] And everybody says we’re going too fast But nobody knows how to make it last We’ve got our hands on the wheel tonight And we’re heading straight into the lights [Chorus - Male 1 + Male 2] We’re gonna crash, crash, crash Going too fast, never looking back We’re a beautiful disaster Falling harder, falling faster We don’t know how to make it last Living like there’s no tomorrow, havin’ a blast If we’re gonna burn, let it happen fast We’re not built to last We’re built to crash [Verse 2 - Male 2] There’s a stranger crying in the bathroom There’s a taxi waiting in the rain Another night of saying it’s the last time Another morning waking up the same All the warning signs are flashing red now But there’s something in the wreckage that we chase We keep dancing on the edge of something Just to feel the world beneath our feet shake [Pre-Chorus - Male 2] And everybody says we’re out of control But nobody sees what’s eating us whole We’ve got our eyes on the road tonight And we’re disappearing into the lights [Chorus - Male 1 + Male 2] We’re gonna crash, crash, crash Going too fast, never looking back We’re a beautiful disaster Falling harder, falling faster We don’t know how to make it last Living like there’s no tomorrow, havin’ a blast If we’re gonna burn, let it happen fast We’re not built to last We’re built to crash [Bridge - Trading Lines] [Instrumental drops back to bass and atmospheric guitar] [Male 1] Maybe we were never meant to slow down [Male 2] Maybe we were always gonna burn out [Male 1] Every little warning that we left behind [Male 2] Every wrong turn felt right at the time [Male 1 + Male 2 - Building intensity] And if the whole world falls apart At least we felt it from the start! [Final Chorus - Male 1 + Male 2] We’re gonna crash, crash, crash Going too fast, never looking back We’re a beautiful disaster Falling harder, falling faster We don’t know how to make it last Living like there’s no tomorrow, havin’ a blast If we’re gonna burn, let it happen fast We’re not built to last We’re built to crash [Outro] [Huge drums and distorted guitars, gradually cutting away] Crash… Crash… We’re built to crash. [Final distorted guitar chord]
