Dancin'
Mr. T.rage.dies Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been burin' the blues with a capital be
Surfin' in hell for a brand new me
Got a bone to pick with my skeleton crew
Cashin' in my IOUs

Smoke 'em if you got 'em
Ain't no place like rock bottom
I'm dancin' wit my devils
Blind side by side
I'm dancin' with my devils
Me, myself and I

I've been workin' the street in the same old suit
And there's a hole in my soul that's showin' right through
No more walkin' the walk or talkin' that fast talk
'Cause I'm out of my skin and takin' my clothes off

Smoke 'em if you got 'em
Ain't no place like rock bottom

I'm dancin' with my devils
Blind side by side
I'm dancin' with my devils
Me, myself and I
I'm dancin' with my devils
Doin' the Spanish fly
I'm dancin' with my devils
Hotter than July

I want to do what I wanna do
I have to be who I want to be
Hey you just gotta get over it
It's good be the king

Smoke 'em if you got 'em
Ain't no place like rock bottom




When all is said and done
If you can't beat 'em join 'em and then some

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in "Dancin' with my Devils" by Mr. T.rage.dies are about a person who is trying to escape their current situation and find a new version of themselves. They are tired of their old ways and are ready to make a change. The opening lines, "I've been burin' the blues with a capital be, Surfin' in hell for a brand new me," suggest that the singer is trying to leave behind their old, sad self and create a new, happier version of themselves.


The next lines, "Got a bone to pick with my skeleton crew, Cashin' in my IOUs," suggest that the singer is ready to confront their past and work out any issues they may have with themselves. The line "Smoke 'em if you got 'em, Ain't no place like rock bottom" implies that the singer has hit rock bottom and is ready to move forward from there.


The chorus, "I'm dancin' with my devils, Blind side by side, Me, myself and I" suggests that the singer is dancing with their inner demons, or the parts of themselves that they want to change. The line "I've been workin' the street in the same old suit, And there's a hole in my soul that's showin' right through," implies that the singer has been doing the same thing, living the same life over and over again, and it's left them feeling empty and unfulfilled.


The lines "No more walkin' the walk or talkin' that fast talk, 'Cause I'm out of my skin and takin' my clothes off" suggest that the singer is ready to be vulnerable and shed their old skin. They're ready to be their true selves and stop pretending to be someone they're not. The following lines in the chorus suggest that the singer is enjoying this new version of themselves, and they're dancing with their demons, embracing their flaws and imperfections.


Overall, "Dancin' with my Devils" is a song about self-discovery, growth, and acceptance. It's about acknowledging our flaws and imperfections and embracing them rather than trying to hide or change them.
