[INTRO — breathy, haunting] Red light… cold night… I saw her standing where the shadows die. She said, “Don’t be scared.” I said, “I’m not.” Then the Devil walked in GOLD [VERSE 1 — dark R&B] 2 AM, city looking like a crime scene, black car waiting with the engine running silently. She got that look like she already knows me, whisper in my ear, “Baby, nobody owns me.” Gold on her neck, blood on my sleeve, she don’t ask questions, she just makes me believe. I saw the Devil in the mirror when she smiled, and I swear that motherfucker looked just like mine. [PRE-CHORUS — rising] I know I’m playing with fire, I know I’m crossing that line, but something about the danger makes me feel more alive. [CHORUS — huge rock explosion] THE DEVIL’S IN THE RED LIGHT! CALLING OUT MY NAME! I’VE BEEN RUNNING FROM THE DARKNESS BUT I’M STARTING TO LIKE THE FLAME! LET THE WHOLE SKY FALL! LET THE ANGELS WATCH! IF THIS IS MY LAST NIGHT— I’M GIVING EVERYTHING I’VE GOT! [VERSE 2 — melodic / darker] She said, “Baby, come closer, I can make you forget.” I said, “I’ve already lost myself, so what have I got left?” Black roses on the dashboard, diamonds in the rain, she kisses like forgiveness but she tastes just like pain. Now the city starts burning, sirens harmonize, and every window turns red when the war hits the night. [PRE-BREAKDOWN — whispered] She said, “You wanted heaven…” I said, “I changed my mind.” [BREAKDOWN — screamed] I WANT HELL! I WANT FIRE! I WANT EVERYTHING YOU SAID I COULDN’T HAVE! NO HALO! NO MERCY! NO GOD ABOVE ME! [BRIDGE — dark R&B / falsetto] Maybe I’m addicted to the fall, maybe I don’t wanna be saved at all. Every time I hear the angels call, I turn the music louder. She said, “Stay with me tonight.” I said, “Girl, I’ll stay forever.” Then the morning came… And we were both gone. [FINAL CHORUS — massive] THE DEVIL’S IN THE RED LIGHT! CALLING OUT MY NAME! I’VE BEEN RUNNING FROM THE DARKNESS BUT I’M STARTING TO LOVE THE FLAME! LET THE WHOLE SKY FALL! LET THE ANGELS WATCH! IF THIS IS MY LAST NIGHT— I’M GIVING EVERYTHING I’VE GOT! [OUTRO — soft falsetto] Red light… cold night… I saw the Devil… And she looked like paradise.
