To me this song is about the record labels and how misleading everything can be when an artist first gets into a record deal. The devil being an executive in a suit, hence the chrome reference. Clean and neat looking. He went where everything is clean and towering to the top of one of the big buildings these companies are in. They helped him in every way and made him felt like he belonged there. Made him feel no fear. I just always took it as a reference going back to the Reprise dropping, but to each his own.
