Devil In Me
Elin Hedberg Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm playing the devils card
But I cannot step when she's around
I'm telling her to make up her mind
There are better things to find
You just gotta search on the other side
Devil in me cannot make it her
She's the problem I am not
Fallin' angel smile in my face
Pulls me deeper in to the dismiss
When I had it for 35
In a disappointed time
With a bitter taste on my younger years
Maybe I'll be better then
Maybe I will like it then
To see somebody's life go down
Watch when the sky falls down
Devil in me cannot make it her
She's the problem I am not
Fallin' angel smile in my face
Pulls me deeper in to the dismiss
Watch when the sky falls down
But she deserves what she gets
Devil in me cannot make it her
She's the problem I am not
Fallin' angel smile in my face
Pulls me deeper in to the dismiss
Can't on pending
This is all I have a demon inside me
Well let's take it away
Was there today
Watch when the sky falls down
But she deserves what she gets
Devil in me
Devil in me
Devil in me cannot make it her
She's the problem I am not
Fallin' angel smile in my face
Pulls me deeper in to the dismiss
Watch when the sky falls down
Watch when the sky falls down
Watch when the sky falls down
But she deserves what she gets
The lyrics of Elin Hedberg's song "Devil in Me" suggest that the singer is grappling with a difficult relationship that is dragging her down. She acknowledges that she is playing the devil's card and cannot step away when the other person is around. However, she also realizes that the other person is the problem and needs to make up her mind to find better things. The singer warns that when the sky falls down, the other person will get what she deserves.
The devil in the singer symbolizes the negative emotions and impulses that are controlling her, preventing her from making positive choices. The fallen angel is likely an allusion to the other person, who may appear sweet and innocent but is actually pulling the singer deeper into a negative spiral. The singer recognizes that she may have made bad decisions in the past, but she hopes to improve in the future and see the other person's downfall.
Overall, "Devil in Me" is an introspective and emotional song about struggling with toxic relationships and trying to break free from negative emotions.

This is the original. Her first tv-appearence with this song. And I melted. Hon är så, så speciellt bra, med så, så mycket spännande talang. Sen försvann hon. Tyvärr.
