Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I heard you started runnin' your mouth again

Bitin' hands that feed ya

A little birdie told me you're nobody's friend

And the joke's on me, yeah

Well, baby, who are you to underestimate me?

Smilin' in my face as you take your aim

I tried to be your friend

I won't make that mistake again

I won't make that mistake again

[PreChorus]

I can't dance with the devil on my back

Need somebody who can meet me where I'm at

[Chorus]

These dark days are knockin' on my door

You ain't welcome round here no more

On a different level than I was before

You can't bring me down to you

Can't bring me down

Can't bring me down

You can't bring me down

You can't bring me down to you

[Verse 2]

I can't keep doin' this to myself again

Crossin' hearts that bleed, yeah

Saw this comin', but I didn't want it to end

My eyes are wide and I see ya

Yeah, baby, who are you to go and drag my name?

Livin' in your skin has got to feel so fake

I tried to be your friend

I won't make that mistake again

I won't make that mistake again

[PreChorus]

I can't dance with the devil on my back

Need somebody who can meet me where I'm at

[Chorus]

These dark days are knockin' on my door

You ain't welcome round here no more

On a different level than I was before

You can't bring me down to you

Can't bring me down

Can't bring me down

You can't bring me down

You can't bring me down to you

[Chorus]

Can't bring me down

Can't bring me down

You can't bring me down

You can't bring me down to you

[Bridge]

It must be cold in your veins

And now I know you'll never change

I don't wanna be your friend

Can't do that again

[PreChorus]

I can't dance with the devil on my back

Need somebody who can meet me where I'm at

[Chorus]

These dark days are knockin' on my door

You ain't welcome round here no more

On a different level than I was before

You can't bring me down to you

Can't bring me down

Can't bring me down

You can't bring me down

You can't bring me down to you

[Chorus]

Can't bring me down

Can't bring me down

You can't bring me down

You can't bring me down to you

[Outro]

It must be cold in your veins

And now I know you'll never change

Can't bring me down

You can't bring me down to you
