twist my fingers to hold on,
to something so very wrong,
but i've gone on far too long,
emotions are just too strong,
i'm left down among a million,
'cos i'm below your opinion,
i'm looking but i don't get it,
'cos it'd kill me off if i let it,

i had the best intentions for us, but i watched them break down,
i had the best intentions for us, but i watched them shatter so,
i had the best intentions for us, as we both succumb to doubt,
i had the best intentions for us, but now i won't let myself let go,

look around, see there's nothing left for us,
look around, the best intentions fall to dust,
looking down, see the floor come flying up,
bleeding from the cracks in our broken love,
THE BEST INTENTIONS!

in the midst of our worst existance,
know i had the best intentions for you,
and in the midst of your resistance,
should never lay my attentions on you,

somehow i just can't let go,
of what we had back then,
somehow i just don't know,
the way that all this ends,
all that is broken is gone,
i watched it all go wrong,
and you think i give a shit,
if i slip and lose my grip?

i had the best intentions for us, but i watched them fall apart,
i had the best intentions for us, but i watched them all fade,
i had the best intentions for us, as i bleed from a broken heart,
i had the best intentions for us, but i watched them all break,

look around, see there's nothing left for us,
look around, the best intentions fall to dust,
looking down, see the floor come flying up,
bleeding from the cracks in our broken love,
THE BEST INTENTIONS!

in the midst of our worst existance,
know i had the best intentions for you,
and in the midst of your resistance,
should never lay my attentions on you,

do unto others what has been done to you,
so keep on cutting until you find the truth,
do unto others what has been done to you,
keep on cutting through everything untrue,
do unto others what has been done to you,
you keep on cutting until you kill the root,
do unto others what has been done to you,
you know i had the best intentions for you,

look around, see there's nothing left for us,
look around, the best intentions fall to dust,
looking down, see the floor come flying up,
bleeding from the cracks in our broken love,

and in the midst of your resistance,
should never lay my attentions on you,
in the midst of our worst existance,
know i had the best intentions for you,
THE BEST INTENTIONS!
THE BEST INTENTIONS!
