Devils Don't Fly

I heard the angels call again

I threw myself a party, Chardonnay and Oxy

I stopped the screams inside my head

I remember when you had me

Floatin' high like Sid and Nancy

They say it's not the answer, but I can't carry on

'Cause I got nowhere, no one, without you, boy, I'm done

And when I'm gone remember you're the one

And just because I fight don't mean that I never learned how to love

You know, devils don't fly

So don't expect me not to fall

Devils don't fly

By God, we almost had it all

But I got chains and you got wings

You know that life ain't fair sometimes

Devils don't fly

But I try

What's a girl to do when she's not strong?

When everyone that holds my hand

Gets cut from all the thorns?

I used to put my ear against the wall

To hear the screams, to hear the fall

More reasons to escape it all

And it's not the answer but I can't carry on

I give my best smile, my last dime

But I always get it wrong

It's not 'cause I'm young or from a broken home

Maybe I just fight 'cause I don't know where I belong

You know, devils don't fly

So don't expect me not to fall

Devils don't fly

By God, we almost had it all

But I got chains and you got wings

You know that life ain't fair sometimes

Devils don't fly

But I try

Angels were never meant to fall

And you were the loveliest of all

If I thought that God could fix this I'd pray for your forgiveness

But I've been cast down, thrown out when I crossed to the other side

No, devils don't fly

You know, devils don't fly

So don't expect me not to fall

Devils don't fly

By God, we almost had it all

But I got chains and you got wings

You know that life ain't fair sometimes

Devils don't fly

But I try

But I try
