Lyrics:
The devil doesn't bargain
It's useless, don't do this
It's hubris to try
He's ruthless, you knew this
I told you, didn't I?
He's abusive, elusive
The truth is, he lies
I know you don't want to let go
And just like before
I can see that you're sure
You can change him but I know you won't
The devil doesn't bargain
He'll only break your heart again
It isn't worth it, darling
He's never gonna change
He'll never be Prince Charming
He'll only do you harm again
I don't mean to meddle
But the devil doesn't settle
No, the devil doesn't bargain
Mm
Devil doesn't bargain
Mm
I'm not one to lecture
Talk down to a friend
I don't mean to pressure
Mean to condescend
But I just want what's best for
You in the end
I know you don't want to let go
And just like before
I can see that you're sure
You can change him but I know you won't
The devil doesn't bargain
He'll only break your heart again
It isn't worth it, darling
He's never gonna change
He'll never be Prince Charming
He'll only do you harm again
I don't mean to meddle
But the devil doesn't settle
No, the devil doesn't bargain
Mm
Devil doesn't bargain
Mm
And I know you think
He'll change this time
But I think that you will find
The devil doesn't bargain
He'll only break your heart again
It isn't worth it, darling
He's never gonna change
He'll never be Prince Charming
He'll only do you harm again
I don't mean to meddle
But the devil doesn't settle
No, the devil doesn't bargain
Mm
Devil doesn't bargain
Mm
Devil doesn't bargain
Mm
Devil doesn't bargain
Mm
#AlecBenjamin #UnCommentary
this song fits so well with the book “it ends with us”
I’ll have to read it then lol
@@beanseverything8442 i just finished it today and it’s so good 😭
It does😩
can't agree more
I need the autor o link please hehe
Alec has something in his voice that I haven’t heard in any other artist. I am in love with his songs!
Absolutely. Raw talent? Absolutely!
Alec’s songs are always so well written, I mean all the lyrics are deep, personal, relatable and having relatable music like this is such a beautiful thing !! Not every song is like that.. personally I relate to a lot of his songs even if I haven’t really lived the same things, I always manage to imagine the lyrics with my loved ones and it’s a beautiful experience (even if sometimes it’s a bit sad)!…..
thank you Alec for writing these master pieces !! ❤️
Couldn't Agree more!
I agree especially boy in the bubble
I agree
I was in Munich and met you there, it's unbelievable how you were so humble and kind!! I have no words to describe how much happy I was! I've been your fan since 4 years and I listened to your music, while I was in so many different moods and feelings. YOU were, are and will always be my favorite singer in this world Alec. I love you endlessly and always support you and I wish you all the best and happiness in your life. See you very soon the next time in Germany.
Best regards from me (Mina) ❤️.
always have loved you music and forever will. its gotten me through so much, thanks for that man.
Ello again lol
@@TripusThe3LeggedCat we meet again in our natural habitat
@@alecscheddarcheese1621 yes, in the best person in the worlds account
@@alecscheddarcheese1621 also you deserve a sub from me!
@@TripusThe3LeggedCat haha and u deserve one from me
this song is a gem! Alec has something precious here :D
Este hombre es asombroso! Adoro su voz, es tan dulce, me hace levitar, es Perfecto .
Dua Lipa: I'm levitating!
pop off my obsession with this song shall never end.
Our boy Alec deserves a Grammy 🥺
this is gonna slap as always
it did
I love Alec's songs, they have so much depth and meaning that most songs these days lack, if I'm feeling alone, I listen to his songs, they make me feel like someone understands me. 😭💜
Thanks you for everything you do for us. I came to one of your concerts and it was my first concert and I traveled all over Italy just to come and hear you. I love you and always will❤
This man has saved me so many times. Honestly his music helped me survive my abusive father, my suicidal thoughts and my girlfriend who committed. Thank you sm much Alec
i hope u always will tell such stories through your songs and i guess it can somehow help some of us to deal with our lives and our problems in a different way because we know we are not alone. i really love this song! much love to whoever is going to read this
Much love to you too 💕
@@sofiaw717 thank u
This is my favorite song in the new album. I am extremely disappointed I couldn’t make your concert
You deserve everything and all the love you get Alec. You are amazing and a beyond talented songwriter and I just love you so much! I wish I could see you on tour🙌🙌❤️❤️❤️
i came to a concert of yours back in may for my birthday and it was the best night of my life- so many amazing things happened because of you and i have loved your music for years on end. i will never EVER stop listening to it, and we're looking to come to another concert hopefully this september
I've been watching your journey for many years Alec, and it makes me happy to see how far you come every single day. This song gives me chills every time I listen, along with so many more of your songs. You're an inspiration to me. Thank you for all that you do Alec.
The acoustic is everything to me 🥰🥰
i was at the munich concert, i will always treasure that memory. the music was insane and everyone was so nice (they even offered to let me to the front so i could throw my drawing on stage, i literally cried after the show.)
Alec you're awesome, your your music was always there throughout my life, accompanying me in the good and bad ways, your music has that special something that other music does not have, it is simply amazing.
I feel like his songs are the kind that you can jam out to in your car, cry to, smile to, or even fall asleep to and those are definitely the best kind of songs that could exist
My gosh...
I discovered your songs when you had like... 200 k subs or so.
I remember it was "Knife in my back" which I heard first. Later then I really REALLY fell in love with "Pretending". Sooner or later there were more songs to appreciate. "The wolf and the sheep", "paper crown" and "1994".
I don't know if you remember the song called "Together we'll fall" but recently I've been singing it in my vocal classes. My teacher was under the great Impression. He said this lyrics had a very deep meaning.
Your concert in Warsaw on Thursday... Was a dream come true since I am your fan for nearly 5 years. I was IN TEARS when I saw you on that stage. I soon ran out of tissues haha😅
Seeing you now, with thousands of fans, nearly 5mln of subs, three albums and a tour...
I hope you know how glad I am that you exist. Like omg... SO SO GLAD.
Sending lots of hugs
Iga from Poland
True Fan you are... ❤

Was at the london performance a few days ago! Was really really awesome! Listened for a long time, so it really was lovely to be there with everyone!
I introduced my little sister to Alec's music and it really was something else to share this with her and everyone in the room- was wild
I love Alec Benjamin thank so much for this
Heartbreakingly beautiful in the most painful way possible
So proud of how far u become 😭😭💜

I'll never get tired of listening to Alec's songs
Imagine getting a heart from Alec Benjamin!!!!!
I love the focus of vocals in while the video has all the commotion, it relaxes me haha, love from california ❤
The best thing about Alec’s music isn’t the way it sounds it’s the stories that he tells through them. Every lyric is so meaningful and relatable even. Not only is his voice amazing but a lot of people get to relate to his lyrics in such a deep way. Alec I hope you continue to write music for a long time because everything you write is perfect.🧡
alec is so sweet to his fans and it melts my heart. such an amazing guy

Thank you for everything ! Your music means so much to me. This song on the album or on stage is really great ! I can't wait to see you a 4th time on stage ! So see you soon ! ❤️
This song just brings back old memories from Alec. It reminds me of his song “Jesus in LA” that song is such a good song and I love it to this day. This tho, this is so good! I have been with Alec pretty much when he started, and his songs just hold a part of my heart. Great job, you have done so good! I’m in love with this song and I’m so proud of you!

Thank you so much for making this amazing music Alec Benjamin. Your music has helped me so much in the past and I can’t express how much I love and appreciate you and what you do. I hope you and your band enjoy traveling on tour and that you all stay safe and healthy!! 😊❤️🧡
Alec's lyrics are always meaningful and full of emotion but only during the live concert you can really feel how raw and honest those words are. His live performances just hit different. I'm so grateful that I could see him live on stage, it was such an honour to see such a great artist and a humble, fantastic person🧡
He escuchando a Alec Benjamin por 3 años me hace muy feliz, siempre será mi artista favorito 🤗🤗. Cuando necesito desahogarme siempre escucho sus canciones y me hace feliz, quizá es la persona que siempre aparece en mis sueños. Deseo alguna vez ir a sus conciertos a Estados Unidos. 🤗💕💞
