Some take to drinkin'

Some take to usin'

Dont't matter what poison they choose

Some hit rock bottom, lose every dollar

Some get thier hearts broke in two

It's a long way down

And a hard road back



(Chorus:)

When you've been through hell

Played with fire

Watched the devil dance

You thank the Lord for each morning

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 temtation is out their waiting

To lure me back into her arms

But I wont surender '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 their like I've been their

Your carefull with each step you take

It's a long way down

And a hard road back



(Chorus)
