Devil Trigger
Ali Edwards Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll endure the exile
The darkness of night falls around my soul
And the hunter within loses control
Gotta let it out, gotta let it out
Gotta let it out, gotta let it out
This demon inside has a hold of me
Clenching its power, trying to break free
Gotta let it out, gotta let it out
Gotta let it out, gotta let it out
Move fast baby, don't be slow
Step aside, reload, time to go
I can't seem to control
All this rage that's inside me
Pullin' shots, aimin' dots, yeah I don't miss
Branded by fire, born in the abyss
Red hot temper, I just can't resist
All this vengeance inside me
All of these thoughts runnin' through my head
Arm on fire, veins burnin' red
Frustration is gettin' bigger
Bang, bang, bang, pull my Devil Trigger!
Embrace the darkness that's within me
No hiding in the shadows anymore
When this wickedness consumes me
Nothing can save you and there's no way out
I'm a wildfire you won't tame
Igniting my temper, can't put out my flame
There's no way to contain
This storm swelling inside me
I'm a bomb you can't diffuse
Might just accept you're gonna lose
Can't turn down, I refuse
To hold back anymore
All of these voices inside of my head
Blinding my sight in a curtain of red
Frustration is getting bigger
Bang, bang, bang, pull my Devil Trigger!
When the night ends it's not over
We fight through to get closer
Like a silver bullet piercing through
I throw myself into you
The lyrics of 'Devil Trigger' by Ali Edwards are about a person who has a demon inside them that they can't control. The demon is powerful and wants to break free, causing the person to feel rage and frustration. They embrace the darkness within themselves and decide not to hide anymore. The lyrics are full of aggression and chaotic energy, demonstrating the theme of losing control.
The first two lines of the chorus, 'I'll endure the exile', suggest that the persona is not entirely comfortable with their demon yet they are willing to live with it. The phrase 'Move fast baby, don't be slow' indicates that the persona wants to act quickly before they lose control completely. The phrase 'Branded by fire, born in the abyss' gives an idea that this demon was born from the underworld, making it seem more ominous.
The persona describes their emotions as a wildfire that can't be tamed, igniting their temper and making it impossible for them to hold back anymore. The last two lines of the third verse suggest that the persona is aware of the voices inside their head, but they can't see clearly because of the red curtain appearing in front of them. The last line demonstrates that the persona is possibly throwing themselves into danger, perhaps by embodying their demon and seeking out trouble.
