First teased in the trailer for her newly released documentary, ‘Dancing With The Devil’ is a frank offering which confronts Demi’s struggles with addition, more specifically her relapse and near-fatal overdose in 2018. Demi is no stranger to wearing her heart on her sleeve, however, ‘Dancing With The Devil’ is her most brutally honest release to date as she opens up about one of her darkest moments.
I was dancing with the devil, out of control
Almost made it to heaven, it was closer than you know
Playing with the enemy, gambling with my soul
It’s so hard to say no when you’re dancing with the devil
The track comes accompanied by a live acoustic performance video which further emphasises the emotional nature of the song. Highlighting Demi’s powerhouse vocals, this stripped back rendition is utterly compelling and showcases her remarkable strength.
