Dance With the Devil
Xander & The Peace Pirates Lyrics

I left my Mother back at home
I went away from my mother to join the army.

Joined the army to see the world
I joined the army with the hope of exploring the world.

To be a man to fight a War
I felt that going to the army and fighting a war will make me become a man.

But I just ended up killing strangers
Unfortunately, I ended up taking the lives of strangers.

When you Dance with The Devil
When you engage in evil or dangerous activities,

The Devil don't change
the danger or evil doesn't change,

He changes you he changes you
but it changes the person involved.

When you see through his eyes
When you adopt the perspective of someone evil,

You see a world full of lies
you view the world as a place full of deception and fabrication.

If sorrow was cash
If the pain and sadness I'm feeling were of monetary value,

I'd have money in the bank
then I would have lots of wealth saved up.

No need to steal beg borrow
I would not have to take desperate measures to acquire financial possessions.

No God to thank
I wouldn't have anyone to acknowledge as a blessing.

If I could trade in tears
If I could exchange my tears for wealth,

I'd be rich rich beyond my years
then I would be very wealthy, beyond my age.

When pain has value
When there is a sense of worth to the agony,

This world will take you
The world will consume and exploit your vulnerability.

Light come save me
Oh, please enlighten me,

He changes you.
When you dance with the devil or do evil things repeatedly, it changes your personality permanently.
