In Fear and Faith, Craig Owens - The Road to Hell Is Paved With Good Intentions lyrics

Here we are, in the place where you grew up
Where you spent so much time
Where you plotted out your life
These next few lines are a series of events
About my family and friends
That kept me further from the edge

So when the day comes that they
Put me into the ground
All the ones who claimed they
Loved me will gather around
They’ll throw flowers down and tears will
Come running down their face
As they say goodbye and say that
I’ve gone to a better place

This is where your vision starts
Where your vision starts to blur
Have you ever thought of giving up
On what you love the most?
Did you forget about the ones
That you would hurt?
Just a few more seconds then
The pain will be gone

Just hold on! (Go ahead, let go)
It’s not your time! (Your time is up)
There is so much more!
(You should end it here)
You've got your whole life in front of you!
(You’ve got nothing to live for)
There’s a reason to live!
(So pick up that knife)
You just can’t give up!
(Put it through your chest)
(Please end it, please, end it all)

It’s on the tips of our tongues
Help me, hear me, leave me, forgive me
If I fall, i’ll be the one left to
Lie alone in this mess
And I know, that if you end your life
I will be joining you shortly

You say, "You need a greater purpose"
I say, "You need to see what's coming"
You say, "You need a greater purpose"
(When you know that the feeling is gone)
I say, "You need to see what's coming"
(You’ll see this through my eyes
And feel alive again)
You say, "You need a greater purpose"
(When you know that the feeling is gone)
I say, "You need to see what's coming"
(You’ll see this through my eyes
And feel alive again)

The road to Hell is
Paved with good intentions
The road to Hell is
Paved with good intentions
