[INTRO — whispered, intimate] There's a shadow in the doorway And I know that silhouette Same old eyes, same old invitation Same mistake I haven't made yet I should leave before it starts I should turn around and go But there's something in the silence That I already know [INDUSTRIAL GROOVE — controlled, dark] You don't knock when you come calling You just lean against the frame You know every weak spot in me You don't even need my name Every warning sounds seductive Every red light looks like gold I've been down this road so many times I ought to know the toll [GOTHIC LIFT — mournful] Maybe trouble has a memory Maybe I remember too Maybe every road I swore I'd never take Still somehow leads to you [MAIN HOOK — huge, seductive] I'm dancing with the devil And the devil knows my steps One hand around my waist One hand around my neck I'm dancing with the devil Like we've done this all before I know exactly what I'm asking for And I still come back for more [RITUAL BREAK — sparse, hypnotic] Step. Turn. Breathe. Again. Don't look down. Don't say no. One more time. [MECHANICAL DROP — rhythmic] I know the sound of the lock I know the weight of the chain I know exactly how it starts I know exactly who's to blame Still I reach for the handle Still I let you walk inside I keep calling it a weakness Like I don't know why I tried [METAL SURGE — aggressive] Dancing with the devil Underneath a crooked moon Every little lie gets louder Every promise comes too soon Dancing with the devil Till the walls begin to spin I keep swearing I'm leaving While I'm letting you back in You say, "You know you want it." I say, "I know." You say, "Then quit pretending." I say, "Don't go." [GOTHIC LIFT — exposed strings] There are things I never tell you There are things I never tell myself Some doors don't need a key They only need somebody else [ETHEREAL BRIDGE — fragile] Maybe the devil isn't waiting Maybe the devil isn't there Maybe I've been giving shape to something Because somebody answered Maybe I don't want forgiveness Maybe I don't want to heal Maybe I just want something sharp enough To remind me I can feel [FINAL ASCENT — building] Let the old drum find my heartbeat Let the strings begin to rise Let the machinery awaken Let the whole room close its eyes [FINAL IMPACT — full] I'm dancing with the devil And the devil knows my steps One hand around my waist One hand around my neck I'm dancing with the devil And I don't know who will win I keep walking toward the fire I keep letting you back in Dancing with the devil With my eyes wide open now If I'm going down tonight I'm going down without a vow [BREAKDOWN — distorted bass and cello] You always knew I'd come back. So did I. [OUTRO — quiet, haunted] There's a shadow in the doorway And I know that silhouette I could walk away forever But I haven't left yet. I'm dancing with the devil.
