Devil by the Window
TOMORROW X TOGETHER Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ah, lie, lie, lie, lie down
Go rest your eyes
Just fall asleep, sweet dreams
You can't get off the ride

A wolf in sheep clothes, his disguise
In the na-na-na-night
You'll be hiding inside

Oh, whatcha doing?
You got some time today?
Oh, what a nuisance
Come, come, come out to play

High, so high, the crimson sky
It's way too sweet to turn down
I scream and shout, but no one's 'round
There's no way to escape it

I met the devil by the window
Traded my life
Temptation touched my tongue
Spread the wings of desire
He's whispering
"Give up, don't you put up a fight"
Said the devil by the window
"Dream on, dream on, good night!"

Ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah

Said the devil by the window
"Dream on, dream on, good night!"

Waste, waste away in the gutter with me
No, I can't tell what is fake in my reality
I see the waves, see the waves wash over me
Oh, stay, you can stay when you're tempted to leave

Oh, whatcha doing?
You got some time today?
Oh, what a nuisance
Come, come, come out to play

High, so high, the crimson sky
It's way too sweet to turn down
I scream and shout, but no one's 'round
There's no way to escape it

I met the devil by the window
Traded my life
Temptation touched my tongue
Spread the wings of desire
He's whispering
"Give up, don't you put up a fight"
Said the devil by the window
"Dream on, dream on, good night!"

Ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah

Said the devil by the window
"Dream on, dream on, good night!"

Devil, de-devil, devil
Devil, de-devil (oh, I met the)
Devil, de-devil, devil (oh)
Come here, come here, good night

High
High
High, I feel my body drifting into the sky
I won't come down, come down, come down, I will
I'll fly




Weightless, without a worry into the night
He said, "Dream on, dream on, dream on"

Overall Meaning

In the end, the song seems to suggest that giving in to temptation only leads to being trapped and manipulated by darker forces.
