Lyrics

The Devil Knows My Name

Intro
The room goes black...
The candles sway...
I hear your voice—
The devil knows my name.

Verse 1
Velvet midnight wraps around your frame,
A slow-burning fire I can't escape.
Your shadow dances across the wall,
One crooked smile and I lose it all.
You taste like danger, dressed in black,
No turning around, no going back.
Every heartbeat echoes your refrain,
Calling me deeper into the flame.

Pre-Chorus
Every promise carved in sin,
Every breath pulls me back in.
No halo left for me to claim...
The devil knows my name.

Chorus
The devil knows my name,
He laughs every time you call the same.
We're dancing where the angels fear,
Lost between desire and fear.
Your eyes ignite an endless blaze,
I'm hypnotized inside your gaze.
If this is where the fallen reign...
I'll wear the fire without the shame.

Verse 2
Crimson moon above our heads,
A thousand words we never said.
Your heartbeat keeps perfect time,
Like poison poured into sweet wine.
No prayers left to save my soul,
Only your voice taking control.
I'd chase this darkness all the same,
Just to hear you speak my name.

Bridge
No heaven...
No disguise...
Only truth inside your eyes.
If forever starts tonight...
Lead me into endless night.

Breakdown
No mercy!
No retreat!
Feel the thunder underneath!
Raise the flames!
Break the chains!
The devil knows...
The devil knows my name!

Final Chorus
The devil knows my name,
And I'd still walk into the flame.
No salvation left to find,
You've already claimed this heart of mine.
When the darkness calls again,
I'll answer without fear or shame.
The devil smiles... the night remains...
Because the devil knows my name.
