The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So you say that it's over
You want to be alone
Well don't you worry about me now
The devil takes care of his own
So I put stones in your pockets
Took away your funny bone
I always knew that I was no good
The devil takes care of his own
Waking up with no one
Is going to take a while to learn
Well I guess I found out
Hell's not the only place you burn
Burn burn burn
And on the path of least resistance
Sometimes you think you've found a home
Well don't you give it a second thought
The devil takes care of his own
Waking up with no one
Is going to take a while to learn
Well I guess I found out
Hell's not the only place you burn
Burn burn burn
What on earth are you waiting for?
I thought you said that you were going
Well I know that you'll be just fine
See the devil takes care of his own
