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
