“They Can't Erase Me” lyrics

They can't erase me, I was built to last

Neon on the highway and the city's in my rearview
Everybody's asking where I've been, I got a clear view
Took a couple losses and I kept 'em in my pocket
Every door they closed, I learned to pick the lock and
Every friend I lost, I wish 'em well, I wish 'em money
Every time they doubted, I just smiled 'cause it was funny

And they said I'd fall off
And they said I'd fade out
But the lights are still on
In this whole town

They can't erase me, I was built to last
Every little whisper fades so fast
Watch me in the rearview, never looking back
They can't erase me, I was built to last

Built to last (built to last)
Yeah, yeah
Built to last

Built to last

Yeah, uh, moving on the late night
Never needed daylight
Everybody chasing a moment, I'm the whole night
Came up out the cold, now the cold's on my wrist
Everybody watching, I just add to the list
Everything I touch, it turns to something they remember
Built it in July, it's still standing in December

And they said I'd fall off
And they said I'd fade out
But the lights are still on
In this whole town

They can't erase me, I was built to last
Every little whisper fades so fast
Watch me in the rearview, never looking back
They can't erase me, I was built to last

Built to last
Ten years from now
Twenty years from now
They'll still play it loud
In this town
Ten years from now
Built to last

They can't erase me, I was built to last
Every little whisper fades so fast
Watch me in the rearview, never looking back
They can't erase me, I was built to last

Built to last (built to last)

They can't erase me, I was built to last

Every little whisper fades so fast
Watch me in the rearview, never looking back
They can't erase me, I was built to last

Built to last (built to last)
Yeah, yeah
Built to last

Built to last

Built to last (built to last)
