Hell to Pay

Go ahead and light me up
With smoke and mirrors
I would never trade my love
For all your fear
And all the cash in your pocket
Ain’t gonna save you now
Because you can’t buy a lifeboat
When the ship is going down

Everybody’s got hell to pay, everyone has got words to say
Everybody’s got a better way, but everyone has got hell to pay

What is it you hate so much
Is it that you look but you can’t touch
How dare you chase me with a hired gun
Well if somebody’s pulling that trigger
Man you better be the one

Everybody’s got hell to pay, everyone has got words to say
Everybody’s got a better way, but everyone has got hell to pay

And by the time summer was over I was done picking out clovers
Luck is hard to define
And by the time I outrun the ghost, there are ten more whispers close
That I don’t see with my eyes

Everybody’s got hell to pay, everyone has got words to say
Everybody’s just a runaway, but everybody’s got hell to pay

I made you up in my mind
Everybody’s got hell to pay
