Devil

[Intro] [Verse 1] If all I have is now No consequences Would I go touch the flame? Or would I run for the exit? I’ve fought this all my life The blood’s shedding like never before But I finally see your face It’s just a mirror looking back at me And my reflection is all I see [Chorus] I don’t wanna finish what we started I never should’ve let you in You thought I was an easy target Now I know who you are who the devil is You can try to take my salvation You can try to take everything I’m not a slave to your temptation Cause I know who you are and who the devil is [Verse 2] There’s nowhere safe to hide I can feel your presence But we’ve been waging war Since you fell from the heavens I’ve fought this every night Feels like I’ve already been here before Where I’m looking into your eyes And my reflection’s looking back at me And the devil is all I see [Chorus] I don’t wanna finish what we started I never should’ve let you in You thought I was an easy target Now I know who you are who the devil is You can try to take my salvation You can try to take everything I’m not a slave to your temptation Cause I know who you are and who the devil is [Bridge] I had enough of you cause you took enough away from me   The lies I lived became everything I believed But the truth is that the devil in you is me The devil in you is me The devil in you is me [Chorus] I don’t wanna finish what we started I never should’ve let you in You thought I was an easy target Now I know who you are who the devil is You can try to take my salvation You can try to take everything I’m not a slave to your temptation Cause I know who you are and who the devil is

La chanson aborde le combat intérieur d'une personne face à ses propres démons et aux tentations. Elle évoque la lutte constante entre la lumière et l'obscurité, ainsi que la prise de conscience que les véritables antagonistes peuvent parfois résider en soi. Le protagoniste réalise que laisser entrer ces influences négatives a conduit à des souffrances, mais il refuse désormais d'être un pion dans ce jeu destructeur. Dans ce contexte de lutte spirituelle, le texte met en lumière la guerre incessante entre le bien et le mal, soulignant qu'il ne faut pas succomber aux séductions du mal, même si cela semble tentant. C'est un cri de résistance, une affirmation de soi face à des forces pernicieuses et une rechercher de la délivrance.
