Letting You In

Boarded up, sealed off, with a chair against the door
A deadbolt lock for each one that came before
And I set, that chain, forever in it's place
Swore to myself I'd never make the same mistakes.
And then you, you came to me
And in your hands a skeleton key

Letting you in
Is the hardest thing I ever did
The raging war between my heart and head
The righter one don't always win
Letting you in
I still thank God for that day
When you walked up and knew just what to say
To make me come unhinged
Letting you in

I still, don't know, what you saw in me
I was beat up, broken down, closed off from everything
But still, you knocked, and waited patiently
Until I found the strength to find an opening

Letting you in
Is the hardest thing I ever did
The raging war between my heart and head
The righter one don't always win
Letting you in
I still thank God for that day
When you walked up and knew just what to say
To make me come unhinged
Letting you in

And you, you came to me
And in your hands a skeleton key

Letting you in
Is the hardest thing I ever did
The raging war between my heart and head
The righter one don't always win
Letting you in
I still thank God for that day
When you walked up and knew just what to say
To make me come unhinged
Letting you in
Letting you in
