[Verse 1]

One step back from a beat-down maniac

I'm tired of taking a backseat from all the other demons

That are stealing all the good shit

Leaving me with nothing but my hands

Another stroke down my back, tasting all the flames that are

Licking around my neck and making me insane

As they pull me down, pull me down into my grave

I can't get away


[Chorus]

Ooh... it doesn't mean nothing

Until you're deep inside, dancing to the devil's swing

Woah, it doesn't mean a goddamn thing

Dance to the devil's swing


[Guitar Bridge]


[Verse 2]

Spit down inside, begging for another ride

I'm trying to find a way to keep it all

And satisfy the needs I'm craving and

I'm not taking it lightly, oh, no!

I'm living inside, a dead lie

Controlled by the devil's eyes, and I don't mind it

Draw my ace up and roll my snake eyes nightly

Hold on, baby!


[Chorus]

Ooh... it doesn't mean nothing

Until you're deep inside, dancing to the devil's swing

Woah, it doesn't mean a goddamn thing

Until you're deep inside, dancing to the devil's swing


[Post-Chorus]

Woah, dancing, dance to the devil's swing


[Guitar Solo]


[Bridge]

Play with my insanity

Live inside my darkened

My darkened dreams, darkened dreams

Hail to the devil's swing


[Chorus/Outro]

Ooh... it doesn't mean nothing

Until you're deep inside, dancing to the devil's swing

Woah, it doesn't mean a goddamn thing

Until you're deep inside, dancing to the devil's swing

Woah, it doesn't mean a goddamn thing

Oh, a goddamn thing

Dance to the devil's swing
