The Devil, You + Me Lyrics
We know we're not the smartest
In this place we don't have to be
Lights are out, but anyhow
This is what they see
It's the devil,
It's you and me
Bring it on home, and keep it warm
Won't leave you anyhow
We know we know
When snow will fill our window
A yearlong winter's done
And all is white
We'll pack our things
And leave this town,
Cause this is what they see
It's the devil,
It's you and me
Bring it on home, and keep it warm
Won't leave you anyhow
In this place we don't have to be
Lights are out, but anyhow
This is what they see
It's the devil,
It's you and me
Bring it on home, and keep it warm
Won't leave you anyhow
When snow will fill our window
A yearlong winter's done
And all is white
We'll pack our things
And leave this town,
Cause this is what they see
It's the devil,
It's you and me
Bring it on home, and keep it warm
Won't leave you anyhow

I really like this song, I would say it's the second best Notwist song after Gloomy Planets. I have no clue about the lyrics though. It sounds like they had to stay somewhere for a year, a year which he has compared to winter, but now they are leaving and are glad because nobody there likes them.
He says the lights are out but that (the devil, you and me) is what they see. Maybe he means they are making assumptions because of a lack of knowledge.
