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

The thing I love most about Alec's music is that it tells a story that can be translated so many different ways. The dance is incredible!!
Right it's not just music ever one of his songs has some kind of meaning or message to it.
Exactly
🥀 GORGEOUS 🥀
✨YES✨
Ikr
Okay, but raising awareness about domestic abuse through dance is so creative and unique. Props to these two!
And Alec as well
@@galyxx-game-dev and the video producer lol
Was just about to say all this, such art should be appreciated by more people, Alec Benjamin is too underated
I liked the message of the song enough to look it up on youtube, but the dancers had me in tears. Very moving.
Like totally
This song carries a very strong meaning and i think it should be heard by everyone. It's an eye opener to toxicity and abuse in relationships, and personally I can say it helped me realize that as much as we love someone, sometimes we have to let that person go, for our own good.
I hope this song saves lives and helps people out there who are suffering from abusive relationships, often without being aware of it.
To Alec, thank you for sharing this song with us, it's much more than a song!
That it is, it is a painfully beautiful lyrical story
This song helped me let go of my ex who broke up with me. She was narcissistic and blamed everything on me. Made me believe I was absive and made me question everything I had done to try and figure out how I had hurt her when all I did was give her my love. She blamed me for my past trauma, saying I was too inesure when she never even texted me. (and we were long distance so her not texting me meant I didn't ever hear from her). She texted me 2 months after she broke up with me and told me she broke up with me because she was questioning her sexuality, but she still claims to be lesbian, so I have no idea. Idk why she broke up with me, idk what I ever did to her for her to be so cold towards me.
But this song, it helped me to let her go. She said maybe in the future we could try again, but after listening to this song on repeat and talking to my friends, I know it's best for me to not go back, no matter how much I miss her.
Love this song for so many reasons. I personally am not in an abusive relationship but I have seen it time and again and it usually ends badly for both people Involved. Walk away. Walk away. Walk away!
To an normal eye that dance may look mad and bullshit but to a person who knows about art, it is just beautiful. Such creativity in choreography!
Yep
Alec Benjamin is a huge inspiration to me and I WILL produce a song for him one day.
Can't wait to hear it
Tell me when you do 😁
i wanna hear it! Alec is my favorite artist ever!
@@iconiccj711 thank you 🙏🏼 drop a sub and be apart of the journey!
@@icyvfireball thank you 🙏🏼 drop a sub and be apart of the journey!
I loves these dancers. I still remembering first seeing them on France got talent. And their dances still hit me right in the heart telling such meaningful stories. Their dance pared with Alec’s song
✨pure beauty✨
Wait are THEY same couple in that show?!
@@yesstar_sky8893 yup
Yepp😊
As a dv survivor/unaliving attempt survivor that resulted in 🧠 surgery, fibro, ptsd, backwards neck alignment & homelessness. Don't wait until it's too late. If I left at the first intuition..it would have changed my entire life. We lost all belongings, my health, the ability to have children, and the chance at a life where I can dance, jump on a trampoline with my kids, or have 1 day without excruciating pain. Life will never be the same for me. If you needed a sign..let this be it. You can do it. I wanted to be a dancer... this video brought me to tears. 💜
The dance brings this song so much more meaning. You can see the hurt in their faces, it's incredible. Your music is amazing and tells a wonderful story. That's why I love your music. But this dance, it's beautiful, it shows the story and meaning in the song. The abuse, the hurt, the pain, the love. These dancers are amazing at what they do and what they show through this song is mesmerizing. Bravo to you and the dancers!
The dance makes this video so much more, I liked the song's message enough to look it up on youtube, but the emotion of the dancers has me in tears.
@@mwater_moon2865 It’s beautiful!
Estoy de acuerdo contigo😭
The choreography, the emotion that radiates from these two absolutely stunning dancers! I'm in love.
This is one of the increadible dance ever
thats nice so nice to say!
no
@@pete4895 that was RUDE
Sorry Pete not you i meant
I was in an abusive friendship with this guy who couldn't accept rejection even though I was being as nice as possible He made my life hell and I was terrified, I finally got help and he no longer bothers me. I'm still in school, I'm just a teen, I know for a fact I didn't deserve what he did to me, I am so thankful to Alec for this song, I believe I have been listening to his music for more than a year now and it really saved me from everything. If I could do one thing in the world it would be to give him a big hug. Thank you so much!
The choreography and the emotion, just....WOW! These two did an incredible job telling a story and breaking hearts with how they conveyed it.
A shoutout for the dancers they deserve it
as someone who loves dancing, this is beautiful and it really touched my heart :)
Good lord between these 2 dancers and the lyrics... there is some serious emotion that is shown... the movements of the dancers and their facial expressions are incredible.
Hello beloved lady, Thank you for your lovely like and comments
Have never seen such a beautiful choreography before ..it brought more meaning to the song and it gives a direct picture of what happens in relationships full of domestic violence 🥺💔
The dancers display this so well. The female shows signs of fear, sadness, and reluctance. Perfect for a victim. While the male shows no emotion, cold, lustful, harsh. It's absolutely amazing to watch, it sparks fear into the person watching. Along with raising awareness. Hats off to these two dancers and Alec.
Such talented dancers. The amount of emotion captured by the 2 of them is incredible
Alec talks about things that actually hurts an individual & somehow we all can relate to some of his songs🙂.
Alec is one of the most talented singer and songwriter. His each and every song has beautiful lyrics and an amazing meaning behind it be it his demo songs or his latest songs. Honestly he is incomparable. The dancers did a wonderful job!!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
I was abused by three men. Each differently. Never thought I would find a guy that would love me and not hurt me. I got married September 2022 and I always fear it'll happen again because I'm not an easy person to love. But he knows my past and history and doesn't do anything to hurt me. I love this song and dance.
wish I will meet someone who likes me truly honestly genuinely and not care my flaws and the saddest past
@@weneedpeace92 it'll happen. Give it time. Don't look for it. Let it come to you.
I love how Alex always tells a story in his music and it could be perceived in so many different ways. Each and every person that listens to his songs can relate in one way or another, this man is incapable of releasing a bad song, Nice job Alec, you did a very good job.
The dancers expressions add so much meaning. I appreciate ur work on the song Alec.
This is one of the most powerful performances I have ever seen.
This music video is incredible. The singer tells the story through his singing and the dancers tell it through their dancing. Seems both of them complete each other.
I saw Alec live on Monday and it was incredible. Every one of his songs is amazing. One of the best artists out there. I love him. He & his music mean so much to me. ❤
The dance is amazing tbh and they are so talented we can "feel" the emotion they wanted us to feel
The choreography of this video is so mesmerizing and beautifully done, it captures the image of the song "Devil doesn't bargain" so excellently. I truly wish I could see Alec Benjamin in concert, however I cant take myself (Im between the ages 12-15) and things are too expensive to go anywhere exept Iowa :( but I would so love to go. Ive been a fan of Alec Benjamin for a year now, know most of his songs and love them all ♡ I would consider myself to be pretty lucky and crazy fortunate to be able to attend one(a concert). Alec benjamin is a man that will never seize to impress me and help me (and many many others) throughout hardships. I am so greatful for everything he does, so thank you Mr. Alec Benjamin.♡
i seriously wasn't aware of the fact that dancing could visualize a story that good like it's showing those emotions so well :o i am really impressed by the music and the dancers! i love it
Showing awareness is amazing Alec. Love from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤
I love the dancers!! As a dancer myself I love dances like this with deep meaning. It’s so beautiful❤️
amazing song and great choreography
Whoever choreographed this dance is in reliable shout out to these 2 wonderful dancers ❤🎉
Wow. That was amazing. I had never heard of the dancers before but I am so glad they are doing this, their dancing went perfectly with the song.
No matter how many times I've listened to it, I still can't get over how good it is.
This is an incredible demonstration of how sometimes art is the best way to transmit this type of messages that we aren't capable to talk about with words. Incredible choreography and as always, amazing job Alec
Their expressions are top tier.
Alec has an amazing voice. This is one of my favorite songs keep up the great work!
"The truth is, he lies" Goosebumps, excellent line!
wow. no other words. wow. this is super powerful
Is a deep message on it, even without the explanation.
So glad this song is getting the recognition it deserves.
The song is beyond this world, but having seen this choreography... It's beautiful, superbly executed by the dancers!! So full of emotion, it brought tears to my eyes!
The way they dance is so powerful, this made me cry. What an amazing video😭❤
This was so painfully beautiful and exquisitely done. It brought tears to my eyes. Amazing talent.
I used to be in an abusive relationship and I left that thanks to the help of my friends and this dance brings me so much joy that they are spreading awareness of that cause if you love someone they won't hurt this is why I always listen to Alec's music cause it makes me reflect on things ❤
what i love about Alec's music is that his lyrics are so creative, and he doesn't refer to things plainly as it is. Each and every verse has a deeper meaning!
The dance is... AMAZIN'!!!
Absolute art. This gave me chills. The technical and creative balance and the emotion they both brought makes this such an impactful performance.
Alec, the filming team, That choreographer and those dancers are all damn well talented-
They all just complement each other so well
The way he is using his music to inspire .
Why are all these songs so good ❤❤❤
Alec has a way writing songs where not only it's a story but also a message and lesson to us on life
I love how every song can be interpreted differently by every person and still make such sense. This can be about more than one person like a boyfriend or a father or just a toxic friend. Been on repeat since release!! ❤️
I am a pre teen that understands art and once tried to dance artistically. One thing about the video is that it fits perfectly with Alec’s song and it is perfectly telling people a story. I love it! ❤
Love this song! Alec is one my favorite artists ever.
That dance though!😳 It brings a whole new level of depth to this amazing song!
Those dancers are amazing! 😮❤
cada dia amo mas esta cancion ❤❤
Yo
X3🙌❤️❤️🩹
A Thai fan living in Tokyo, definitely seeing you there! can’t wait💋
I have been that person who was abused, stayed, almost killed but went to another abuser. For anyone in this position, RUN at the First Sign, be it Be Words/Slap/Kick or even a Punch, RUN. No matter the Promise of It Never Happing Again, IT WILL. RUN.
Hello beloved lady, Thank you for your lovely like and comments
Musica relaxante ❤️
Siiiii
Infinite love from India💓💓....Alec....you are synonymous to serenity🌈
These songs aren’t just songs.They’re stories told in lyrics
The emotion is real in the dance and the song adds to it immensely!
This song has a lot of emotion in it... Mostly fear and sadness... I love this song now.
We need a music video ASAP
I love the way BOTH dancers have movements that represent abusive actions. Domestic violence can come from any gender.
This was absolutely beautiful
¡¡Perooo me gusta canción; la letra, el sonido y la coreografía ni que decir🥰 !! Perfección 🙂
la letra lit dice "el diablo no hace acuerdos"
Habla sobre la violencia doméstica 😕
Very beautiful dance
I love how Alec’s music is always discussing important things. Usually now I only ever see inappropriate songs so it’s nice to hear ones encouraging and bringing awareness to problems in our world. Must have been the Wind is one of my favorites :)
I loved the dance.
The way he drags her back anytime she wants to leave and the way she tries to help but he does not to want her help.
One thing people don't understand is that they keep on collecting all your positive energy till you are spent. Till you have nothing left to give.
I love his music! Every day I listen to his music and I love it every day! I think more people should listen to his music!
I will just sit in my room all sad are just don't want no one talking to me then they started to talk to me and it will just make me so mad so I'll just put on my headphones and listen to some alec Benjamin's music and it'll just make me happy and it really helps with my adhd and calming down a lot so thx you for making the music you make it really does help me a lot
i love this fandom goddd...theyre so supportivee 😫
Amazing choreo with along with an amazing message. Kudos to Alec and the dancers as well! 👏🏼
Alec, your songs change lives. Thank you so much for writing amazing songs and singing them so beautifully, I love every one of your songs and have been for a long time now, they help me though a lot. I hope the future holds best for you and never going to stop supporting you!
i have listened to almost every song that you have written and this one is by far my favorite.
Wow. How she got desperate at the end and then they both looked each other in the eyes at the end...shivers. This was STUNNING. And I can't even imagine how hard this is to do. Congrats.
What a beautiful dance performed by very good dancers
Dios el baile, fue...FUER PERFECTO Y HERMOSO, AMO TU MUSICA ALEC Y COMO HACES HISTORIAS EN CANCIONES, Y QUE LAS PERSONAS SE INSPIREN ASI
This is the one song l will sob to, I don’t relate physically to the song but mentally if that makes sense. ❤❤❤❤ love this song sm ( crying rn)
This is so true. Not only about a romantic relationship but any kind of other relationships with others including ur family nd ur coworkers nd friend nd..., we should stop hoping to change a toxic person who made us suffer for years and let them go . Devil doesn't bargain.
I love this. This dance is incredible and passionate in every way and the song is unmatched. It covers issues that have been bothering me for years.
1. Men and women, you are NOT a rehabilitation center for damaged people.
2. If you think something repeatedly happening in your relationship can't possibly be normal or acceptable, reach out to a trusted outside opinion. Abusive partners will say and do anything to convince you to accept their abuse.
My only want is to see this dance performed with the genders swapped to raise awareness for male victims too.
I love this song ❤️💖
I always love this guy's voice
Alec and Dean is my Playlist
I can't stop watching this! The need for these messages is awful, but done so beautifully. Thank you to all involved. I have been the safe place to go for a couple of my friends and their kids. ❤️
I love your music ALEC!!!!! IT Helps me so much as a person ... Thank you !!
Got goosebumps the second this started playing
The DANCERS are so TALENTED!
So talented!! It's exactly how I would imagine a toxic relationship, it fits perfectly with the lyrics. Thank you so much for this Video Alec🤍🌻
always a huge inspiration to me! Can’t wait to see you in September🤍🌹
Alec is a true inspiration that you can be a good singer and tell stories and show emotions without using anything vulgar . This is why he's my favorite singer , hope I get to meet you someday
