Where Does It End? |
LyricsWHERE DOES IT ENDMark Patterson © 2026 Just a traveler with time on his hands Uneasy 'bout the future, formulating plans When she came into focus right before his solitary eyes In flowing robes right out of Raphael And two one-way tickets headed straight into Hell She had an agenda she didn't try to disguise Now you can never get enough divine inspiration But not if it's served with a side of damnation There's a stairway into madness calling you to descend You'll fit right in with all the other condemned It's so easy to get started but tell me brother where does it end You've got one foot through the door of temptation When all you ever wanted was a taste of salvation Turn your back on the truth if you'd rather pretend But there's a record of the rules that you so love to bend It's so easy to get started but tell me brother where does it end One minute you're praying push won't come to shove The next it's raining perdition from above In case you didn't know let me tell you there's no place to hide So just sit back and watch the chaos unfold Looks like fortune has forsaken the bold Despite that courage you feel knowing He's on your side Now you want to believe in the promise of reincarnation But who's been assigned to design your re-creation Stay on the lighted path while you try to ascend Hey it's only your soul you've got to defend It's so easy to get started but tell me brother where does it end It's so easy to get started but tell me brother where does it end Oh it's so easy to get started but tell me brother where does it end |
