[Verse 1]
Who do you think you are?
You don’t write the story, baby
Wanna be some kind of superstar
It’s just a game of let it be
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you ever give up (Can you ever give up)
Living in this masquerade
Singing of insanity
Crying for the mess we made
[Chorus]
How can you dance with the devil on your back?
How can you move?
Caught up in a picture perfect
That will never last
How can you dance with the devil on your back?
How can you move?
Caught up in a picture perfect
That will never last
[Verse 2]
In the deep of the night
Did I hear you call my namе?
Surrender to the light
It will nеver be the same
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you ever give up (Can you ever give up)
Living in this masquerade
Singing of insanity
Crying for the mess we made
[Chorus]
How can you dance with the devil on your back?
How can you move?
Caught up in a picture perfect
That will never last
How can you dance with the devil on your back?
How can you move?
Caught up in a picture perfect
That will never last
How can you dance with the devil on your back?
How can you move?
Caught up in a picture perfect
That will never last
How can you dance with the devil on your back?
How can you move?
Caught up in a picture perfect
That will never last

Chris Martin FaceTimed me to tell me that this was his standout song. I’d done it randomly on the train. And then I wrote the chorus chords like six months later, but didn’t really have a melody or a verse for it. But the fact that the verse and the chorus lived in two different tonalities was alway...
