Devil's Song Lyrics
I caught a demon in a mouse trap
one day behind the house
it said," Please let me free, I'll do anything"
we came to an agreement, made an exchange
your freedom for my name, then he began to sing
Devil's song, won't be too long
to finally see the evil you've become
The Devil cries, all through the night
I don't think there's a reason
Devil's song, won't be too long
to finally see the evil you've become
The Devil cries, all through the night
this feels like a nightmare
I was always told that you're a liar and not to trust
but my name still means nothing and we're all still,
we're all still in the same spot
This feels like a nightmare
one day behind the house
it said," Please let me free, I'll do anything"
we came to an agreement, made an exchange
your freedom for my name, then he began to sing
to finally see the evil you've become
The Devil cries, all through the night
I don't think there's a reason
to finally see the evil you've become
The Devil cries, all through the night
this feels like a nightmare
but my name still means nothing and we're all still,
we're all still in the same spot

i can't remember what he said it was about but if you buy the cd and check out the enhanced stuff that comes with it in one of the videos he said he wrote this song after talking to chris conley from saves the day about something. awesome song though. favorite part is the very last this feels like a nightmare. what he does with his voice is the shit.
I think everyone is thinking too hard its seriously about selling his soul to the devil for fame
the demon says "please let me free I'll do anything" they came to an agreement the demons freedom for his "name" or fame and fortune and the devil begins to sing through him
the lin about the devil's song not being too long means success was short lived and quickly turns into a nightmare of entrapment into anthony's singing career which is stated by the fact the devil cries all through the night in reference to night after night of being trapped by the devil's song
The end is a reflection that demons arent to be trusted because all the fame he has received still leaves him feeling empty and unfullfilled because he sees the error of his ways and he feels he hasnt progressed because its the devils voice speaking through him rather than his own
I totally love this interpretation.

whats it mean!!!!! i read an article in the ap magazine where he says he's been trying to find himself and "my name still means nothing" was also quoted in there.
i love this song!
no idea what it means, but I'm so in love with this song.
"well I was always told that you're a liar, and not to trust but my name still means nothing and we're all still, we're all in the same spot"
maybe about how he's always been aware of everybody around him's faultiness/falseness, but then he realizes he's the same way, and therefore everybody's in the same situation - we're all 'devils'.
or I could be completely wrong, but still.. great song :)
