"The Devil" is a dark, seductive, and electrifying track from Xak Stahl’s Major Arcana album, embodying the themes of temptation, desire, and the struggle for control. Inspired by the Tarot card of the same name, this song explores the magnetic pull of indulgence and the fine line between pleasure and restraint.

With pulsating synths, deep basslines, and a hypnotic rock beat, "The Devil" is as alluring as it is dangerous. The lyrics weave a tale of seduction and surrender, questioning whether we are bound by our vices or empowered by them. The track’s electrifying energy mirrors the card’s symbolism—what enslaves us may also set us free.

Let "The Devil" pull you into the fire—just be careful how deep you go. 🔥😈

Lyrics:

Whispered promises in the dead of night,
Silver tongue, dressed in neon light.
A hunger burns, a reckless game,
You call it sin, but I crave the flame.

One more taste, one more touch,
Too much is never enough.
Bound in chains, but I hold the key,
Are you ready to set yourself free?

I am The Devil, the voice inside,
The thrill you chase, the love you hide.
Give in, give up, come dance with me,
Lose yourself, or be set free.

Every vice, every wicked thrill,
A willing heart, a dangerous will.
The line is blurred, the choice is yours,
Heaven falls when desire soars.

One more taste, one more touch,
Too much is never enough.
Bound in chains, but I hold the key,
Are you ready to set yourself free?

I am The Devil, the voice inside,
The thrill you chase, the love you hide.
Give in, give up, come dance with me,
Lose yourself, or be set free.

Look in my eyes, tell me it’s wrong,
But you’ve been singing my song all along.
You want control, but love the fall,
Surrender now, or lose it all.

I am The Devil, the voice inside,
The thrill you chase, the love you hide.
Give in, give up, come dance with me,
Lose yourself, or be set free.

Shackled tight, or let it go,
The fire's here—will you say no?
The game is played, the choice is mine,
But darling, you've been mine all this time.
