some take to drinkin' some take to usin'
Don't matter what poison they choose
some hit rock bottom lose every dollar
some get their hearts broke in two
cause its a long way down
and a hard road back
chorus
when you've been through hell
playin' with fire
watch the devil dance
you thank the Lord each mornin' for one more second chance
you might outrun your demons you might get on with your life
but you never forget what the flames feel like
i know temptation is out there waitin'
to lure me back into her arms
but i won't surrender
cause i remember how her kisses branded my heart
so i walk away cause the fire still burns
(chorus)
if you follow the straight and narrow
i know it might be hard to relate
but if you've been there like i've been there
your careful with each step you take
cause its a long way down
and hard road back
