Lyrics for Buildings and Bridges
Buildings and bridges are made to bend in the wind, To withstand the world thats what it takes. All that steel and stone are no match for the air, my friend. What doesn't bend breaks, what doesn't bend breaks. La da da da da... We are made to bleed and scab and heal and bleed again And turn every scar into a joke. We are made to fight and fuck and talk and fight again. And sit around and laugh until we choke, sit around and laugh until we choke. La da da da da... Don't know who you were expecting... Probably some bitch who does not budge. With eyes the size of snow. I may get pissed off sometimes, But you seem like the type to hold a grudge And in the end I'll just let it go, In the end I'll just let it go... La da da da da... Buildings and bridges are made to bend in the wind, To withstand the world thats what it takes. All that steel and stone are no match for the air my friend, What doesn't bend breaks, what doesn't bend breaks. La da da da da da da la da da da da...
