Lyrics
Going the distance, the horizon's line is taunting me
Feeling challenged by the distant horizon, facing taunts and challenges.
Over my shoulder looking at all the things I've not achieved
Reflecting on unaccomplished goals, looking back over one's shoulder.
With so many questions, following breadcrumbs on this nowhere road
Possessing numerous uncertainties, following clues on a path with no clear destination.
How did we get here? When we're together, I feel so alone.
Expressing confusion about the current state of the relationship, feeling alone when together.
Are we driving too fast?
Raising the question of moving too quickly in life or the relationship.
We were always built to last
Emphasizing resilience and endurance as inherent qualities.
We never look too far beyond
Not contemplating the future extensively, living in the present.
Don't slow down, we're indestructible.
Asserting invincibility and urging against slowing down.
The only hope we had was rope in hand on which to cling
Describing a desperate situation, with the only hope being a precarious grip on something.
Was it our wisdom or indecision, was it our patience wearing thin?
Questioning whether past choices were based on wisdom or hesitation, and the toll it took on patience.
Ankles are bound, tied our own hands. Down we all stand, admit defeat
Acknowledging self-imposed limitations, standing defeated, and admitting failure.
You know there ain't no saving us now
Accepting the impossibility of salvation at this point.
Are we driving too fast?
Reiterating the concern about the speed of life or the relationship.
We were always built to last
Highlighting the enduring nature of their existence.
We never look too far beyond
Emphasizing the tendency not to look too far into the future.
Don't slow down, we're indestructible.
Encouraging the maintenance of a fast pace, reinforcing invincibility.
Another generation lost. They have nothing left to lose.
Expressing the loss of another generation with nothing to lose.
Laughing in the face of conformity, they spit in the face of change.
Defying conformity, resisting change, and doing so boldly.
Irrevocably.
Stating a commitment or decision that cannot be changed.
Are we driving too fast?
Repeating the question of whether things are progressing too quickly.
We were always built to last
Affirming the enduring quality of their existence, built to last.
We never look too far beyond
Reiterating the tendency not to look too far into the future.
Don't slow down, we're indestructible.
Encouraging the continuation of a fast pace, reinforcing invincibility.
