[Verse 1] Red booth in the corner Clock stuck at 4:02 Smoke curls like a question I’ve been saving just for you You order water Hands still shaking Like you ran here through a fire I slide a worn-out barstool closer Say “I’ve been waiting… take your time” [Chorus] You just met the devil I’ve been waiting for you awhile Saw your name in the quiet Every stumble Every trial You just met the devil But I’ve been walking by your side Every promise that you buried I was watching where you lied [Verse 2] Your phone lights up You face it down Can’t look home in the eye You laugh too loud It cracks in half Spills secrets in your sigh I tap the table Wood rings hollow Like the stories that you spin “Tell me which one hurts the most We can start there Let me in” [Chorus] You just met the devil I’ve been waiting for you awhile Heard you cursing in the dark Every bargain Every trial You just met the devil But I’ve been standing in your shade Every line you swore you’d never cross I was marking with a blade [Bridge] What did you expect to see? Horns A throne A bloody crown? I’m just the voice that sounds like yours When you’re already halfway down (yeah) [Chorus] You just met the devil I’ve been waiting for you awhile Signed in sweat and quiet habits Every click and crooked smile You just met the devil But I’ve been hiding in your skin You don’t need me to drag you down You’re the one who lets me in
