Neon Knight is the one who gost mostly right - in an interview Dio said that it's about a way to get out of hell, if you say something that makes the devil cry, he lets you go. So far only one achieved it and "was sent back to glory", it is implied that it was Jesus; now the protagonist approaches the devil and manages to make him cry... still, and Dio didn't explicitly tell this, I can't understand who is the "you" of the final line "then I told him that I love you"... was it God, because he was still loving God after a life of suffering? usually when shit happens you turn away from God... and the devil was about to smile because he was expecting something like "My life has been shit so I'm glad to serve you oh Satan", and instead he got a "I've got this horrible life, and still I love God" and then cried... because his attempt to corrupt a soul with all evil things proved useless...
"Someone lied so well" could fit with this theory - why this guy would be in hell if he loved God all his life through? he didn't, he lie, but he fooled the devil and made him cry...
Or, could it be that he loved the devil?? kinda like "Listen, I had this horrible life because of this and that, and for that, I thank you", making the devil cry because he wants people to suffer, not to enjoy suffering?
Any other theories about "then I told him that I love you"?
