[Verse 1]
The voice of an angel
The face of a friend
If you're runnin' from trouble
Well, he'll take you in
He'll hear your confession
With a promise of grace
The devil is downtown
It's a hell of a place
[Verse 2]
Anything you can ask for
Whatever you need
It's there for the takin'
But nothing is free
The lights and the music
The smell and the taste
The devil is downtown
It's a hell of a place
[Chorus]
And if you're searchin'
If you're lookin' for a change
Go where you can see the stars
And they don't seem so far away
But if you're hurtin'
And you need to kill the pain
The devil is downtown
[Verse 3]
A heart never heals
After it breaks
You just learn how to deal
And live with the pain
And it's gonna happen
Make no mistake
The devil is downtown
It's a hell of a place
[Chorus]
And if you're searchin'
If you're lookin' for a change
Go where you can see the stars
And they don't seem so far away
But if you're hurtin'
And you need to kill the pain
The devil is downtown
The devil is downtown
[Coda]
The voice of an angle
The face of a friend
The devil is downtown
And he'll take you in
