   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 it's time to fold this losing hand
  Cause you're drawn to the flame
  By the thrill and the shame
  Of the cheating game they taught you how to play
  But there's a price to that high lie you're living
  And you've still got the devil to pay
  
  Join your friends, while you got 'em
  'Cause you know you're getting older every day
  You can't wait to let 'em take you to the bottom
  And I'm getting tired of standing in your way
  But when you hit the ground
  Don't go lookin' around
  For the pieces of the love you threw away
  That's just a part of the high cost of leaving
  And you've still got the devil to pay.
  
  You've 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
  You'll be standing alone
  And forsaken in the naked light of day
  And you'll know that it's all over but the dying
  And you've still got the devil to pay.
