The Devil To Pay
Go on, girl, take your chances
See how long you can go on from man to man
I can read the lines between your stolen glances
And I know its time to fold this losing hand
cause youre drawn to the flame
By the thrill and the shame
Of the cheating game they taught you how to play
But theres a price to that high lie youre living
And youve still got the devil to pay
Join your friends, while you got em
cause you know youre getting older every day
You cant wait to let em take you to the bottom
And Im getting tired of standing in your way
But when you hit the ground
Dont go lookin around
For the pieces of the love you threw away
Thats just a part of the high cost of leaving
And youve still got the devil to pay.
Youve been flying so high for so long that you lied
To yourself now, most of all
Baby, all that you needed from me was the freedom to fall.
When your bright lights are gone
Youll be standing alone
And forsaken in the naked light of day
And youll know that its all over but the dying
And youve still got the devil to pay.
