BRUCE DICKINSON - The Road To Hell lyrics

rate me

[B. Dickinson / A. Smith]

Slowly bleeding watch the vortex feeding

like a swirling vulture on your face

Every hour the unseen rays devour

your screaming eyes cry out but they are blind

Father forgive me my sins

give me the nails, I'll hammer them in

[CHORUS:]

The road to hell is full of good intentions

Say farewell, we may never meet again

The road to hell is full of good intentions

Down the lefthand highway with no sinister regrets

Brave new world of secret fantasy

that hovers just beyond your bloody grasp

Close enough to thrill the danger of the kill

price for failure of your will

Father forgive us our sins

cause we are the junkies who never can win

[REPEAT CHORUS]

[SOLO]

Father forgive me my sins

give me the nails, I'll hammer them in

The road to hell is full of good intentions

Your parody of hope is the one that I must kill

We all have to live with our family inventions

Down the lefthand highway with no sinister regrets

[REPEAT CHORUS]
