[Intro — whispered]
Come a little closer…
I don’t bite.
Unless you want me to.
[Verse 1]
Black smoke curling from your lips
My name hanging off your fingertips
You look at me like you’ve already won
But baby, I’ve only just begun
Low lights bleeding across your skin
I know exactly what kind of trouble you’re in
You say, “Tell me what you want tonight”
I smile slow—
You wouldn’t survive.
[Pre-Chorus]
I can taste your hesitation
Mixed with something dangerous
You keep praying for salvation
While you’re leaning into us
[Chorus]
I’ve got the devil on my tongue
And your name between my teeth
Every warning says to run
But you keep coming back to me
I’m the poison that you want
I’m the sin you can’t outrun
Come and find out what you started
With the devil on my tongue
[Verse 2]
Your eyes drop down, then meet mine
Like getting caught committing a crime
One step closer, nowhere to hide
You like the danger—don’t fucking lie
Leather, perfume, midnight heat
That dirty guitar underneath the beat
You whisper, “You’re gonna ruin me”
Maybe, baby—
That’s the fantasy.
[Pre-Chorus]
There’s a tremor in your breathing
Every time I say your name
You can pretend you don’t need it
But your eyes give you away
[Chorus]
I’ve got the devil on my tongue
And your name between my teeth
Every warning says to run
But you keep coming back to me
I’m the poison that you want
I’m the sin you can’t outrun
Come and find out what you started
With the devil on my tongue
[Breakdown — heavy]
Don’t.
Look.
Away.
You wanted dangerous?
Then fucking stay.
Say my name
Like a confession
Cross that line
Learn your lesson
I don’t need your soul—
Just your obsession.
[Bridge — soft/haunting]
Maybe I’m the wicked thing
Your mother told you not to touch
Maybe you’re the gasoline
And I just like the rush
Maybe heaven locked its doors
Maybe hell knows where I’m from
Either way, you’ll think of me
When the damage is done
[Final Chorus — explosive]
I’VE GOT THE DEVIL ON MY TONGUE
AND YOUR NAME BETWEEN MY TEETH
YOU COULD TURN AROUND AND RUN
BUT YOU’D RATHER BURN WITH ME
I’m the poison that you want
Your favourite loaded gun
Baby, you knew what I was
Before you ever fucking touched
So come closer—
Come undone
You fell in love
With the devil on my tongue
[Outro — whispered]
Still wanna taste the danger?
…Thought so.
