Better the Devil Lyrics by Z Berg

Strange Darling (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

2024

[Verse 1]
Better the devil you know than the devil you don’t
Over and over I keep going under alone
Better the tether that keeps us together
Than some distant siren that changes the weather
Oh, better the devil you know than the devil you don’t

[Verse 2]
Never say never, you’ll find that you feel like a fool
Walking and walking, you follow the light of the moon
Seems like you’re moving, but time’s standing still
Now it all looks familiar, I’ve run up that hill
And I’ll do it forever, I’ll dance with the devil, I will

[Bridge]
Those white lines
Those dark nights
You say I’ll never go

[Verse 3]
Haunting is heavy in pleasure, it weighs the most
He was the same when he’d stay up for days with your ghost
Better the tether that keeps us together
I’ve been here before, and I’ll stay here forever
Oh, better the devil you know than the devil you don’t
Oh, better the devil you know than the devil you don’t
Oh, better the devil you know than the devil you don’t
