Time To Pay The Piper
It's time to pay the piper and to realise no man wins,
As you face the consequences for your many mortal sins,
As you stand to face your judgement with the scales of justice weighed,
As you stand to hear the verdict I'm quite sure you are afraid,
But it's time to pay the piper and there's nothing you can do,
And if you're wondering how I know so much Iv'e paid the piper too,
For the many self indulgences I frequently embraced,
And the cost of which was vast when consequences they were faced,
But there's nothing that comes surer, for his rules must be obeyed,
And eternal his damnation, if the piper goes unpaid.
As you face the consequences for your many mortal sins,
As you stand to face your judgement with the scales of justice weighed,
As you stand to hear the verdict I'm quite sure you are afraid,
But it's time to pay the piper and there's nothing you can do,
And if you're wondering how I know so much Iv'e paid the piper too,
For the many self indulgences I frequently embraced,
And the cost of which was vast when consequences they were faced,
But there's nothing that comes surer, for his rules must be obeyed,
And eternal his damnation, if the piper goes unpaid.

Paying the price and facing the consequences for our actions and choice's is pretty much what paying the piper is about.
