[Verse 1]
One-way ticket
Gate read “Hellgor”
Cheap red carpet
Stains on the floor
Saw her waiting
Black dress
Black grin
Eyes like matches
Striking my sin
[Chorus]
Devil in a black dress
Laughed in my face
Stamped my heart
Then sent me back to this place
Crash-landed on concrete earth
Still feeling the burn
Little bit broken
Still not sure if I learned
[Verse 2]
She said “Welcome
We’ve been dying for you”
Tongue like poison
Smile see-through
Reached for heaven
In her ashtray hands
She pulled back
Chuckled
“Wrong kind of man”
[Chorus]
Devil in a black dress
Laughed in my face
Stamped my heart
Then sent me back to this place
Crash-landed on concrete earth
Still feeling the burn
Little bit broken
Still not sure if I learned
[Bridge]
Back on your sidewalks
Everything gray
Hell had color
In its own way
Was it a blessing
Or just a bad joke?
She lit the fuse
Then swallowed the smoke (hey)
[Chorus]
Devil in a black dress
Laughed in my face
Stamped my heart
Then sent me back to this place
Crash-landed on concrete earth
Still feeling the burn
Little bit hurt and I’m still not sure I’ll learn
Devil in a black dress
Carved out my name
Sent me to the surface just to sit in the rain
Standing on this cracked-up world
Still feeling that sting
Turned down by a demon with my broken
Borrowed wings
