The song's lyrics tell the story of someone who realizes that the person they've been involved with is not who they appeared to be. They initially seemed like an angel but turned out to be deceitful and harmful, hence the metaphorical "devil in disguise." The protagonist discovers the true nature of this person and vows to stay away from them despite their deceptive charm.
In essence, the song reflects themes of betrayal, deceit, and the realization that appearances can be deceiving. It's a cautionary tale about being wary of those who may not have good intentions, even if they seem appealing on the surface.
