Devil's Dance
San Francisco Symphony & Metallica Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Feel, Those things you do
In your eyes I see a fire that burns
To free the you
That's running through
Deep inside you know
Seeds I plant will grow
And dare to come down to me
Yes, come on, come on now take the chance
That's right, let's dance
Snake, I am the snake
Tempting, that bite you take
Let me free your mind
Leave yourself behind
Be not afraid
I've got what you need, hunger I will feed
One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah, come on, come on now take the chance
That's right come dance
Come dancing
One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah, come on, come on now take the chance
That's right
Hey, I feel you too
Feel, those things you do
In your eyes I see a fire that burns
To free the you
That's running through
Deep inside you know
Seeds I plant will grow
One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah, come on, come on now take the chance
That's right we'll dance
It's nice to see you here
Haha
Thank you
Thank you thank you
The lyrics of Devil's Dance seem to be a conversation between a tempting snake-like persona and an individual who the snake wants to break free from their inhibitions. The snake promises to free them from their mind and hunger to feed their desires. The chorus is an invitation to embrace the chance and dance with the snake. The seed that the snake plants will one day grow, which could be interpreted as the seed of temptation.
The lyrics are open to interpretation, but they seem to be referencing the concept of temptation and breaking free from constraints. The snake could symbolize the devil or an entity that represents desire and pleasure. The fire in the eyes could represent the passion that burns within the individual. The repetition of "one day you will see and dare to come down to me" reinforces the idea that the individual is hesitant but will eventually succumb to temptation. Overall, the lyrics seem to be urging the listener to embrace their darker impulses and indulge in the temptation.

Ficou melhor do que a própria versão do studio, tanto o arranjo musical quanto vocal. Maravilhoso♡
Pedro S. Araújo
Maybe the most underrated Metallica's song
JoelTRowe
One of them for sure...They have bunch of great songs which they sadly don't play at all..
Nicolas Gonzalez Ruiz Diaz
Nada más espectacular que Música Sinfónica con Metal. Una obra maestra. Mátense reggetoneros...

Que tiene que ver el reggaeton en esto? Un verdadero metalero, en lo menos que piensa cuando escucha está rola es en otros géneros y más en el reguetón. Saludos.

I never knew about this song till I bought S&M. It got to me immediately- the intro sucked me right in. It's so lush but also tribal. It made me think of a huntress tip-toeing her way through the forest as she stalks her prey, hah hah. And then Kirk comes in like a chainsaw out of left field....gorgeous work from these guys. If the stars align I will be in Boston in May to see them live, which is on my short list of goals for the year.
PS Fuck Yeah, Jason Newsted
