This one isn't even subtle, lol.

When the music's over
When the music's over, yeah
When the music's over
Turn out the lights
Turn out the lights
Turn out the lights, yeah

>"Light" has special significance. It means wisdom. However, to the occult "Light" also refers to the "Light-bearer" (the literal meaning of the name Lucifer). When Kanye has "All of the Lights" in his song he's talking about the revealed wisdom, "Light", that is contained in his music. The same with this song.

For the music is your special friend
Dance on fire as it intends
Music is your only friend
Until the end
Until the end
Until the end

>"Dance on fire" states what is going on spiritually - you're being possessed by unclean spirits, by satan. "Music is your only friend until the end" is saying that Satan is very good to those who give him his soul, until death comes. See the image for passages from Flaubert's "The Dance of Death" and Marlowe's "Faustus".

>No comment. I don't think the rest is even worth commenting on. It's obvious what is being said. Much more subtle is Bob Dylan's "Mr. Tambourine Man", where the tambourine man is the devil, the pied piper. "Mr Tambourine Man, play a song for me, In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you." - Lucifer is the "son of the morning". Jay Z and Kanye also use the word morning in this way. Bob Dylan was quite exceptional with his lyrics. He makes those occult references with a lot of finesse.
