[Intro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
[Verse 1]
Now you know who you're talking to, you know I'm not a liar
I've torn my pants and learned to dance on love and razor wire
I learned to keep on moving when the flames were getting higher
When the devil's stalkin' you, keep walking through the fire
[Verse 2]
And I made friends with the monsters growlin' underneath my bed
I held a ball and invited all the voices in my head
I heard the traffic hummin' and I thought it was a choir
Singing, "When the devil's stalkin' you, keep walking through the fire"
[Interlude]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
[Verse 3]
Now you know who you're talking to, you know I'm not a liar
Advertise your immortal soul and you just might find a buyer
But in the end, my friend, you have to be your own messiah
And when the devil's stalkin' you, keep walking through the fire
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
