Had me up inside a temple
I could not choose
Insecure, got hot to handle
Too much too soon
Time after time
Had to stop cold
Night after night
She takes control
But then
I give it up to the devil in me
And I, I let my guard down
(I let my guard down)
I've given up on her vision of me
When I let my guard down
(I let my guard down, hey)
She'll take me back if I make her believe
That I can finally come down
(can finally come down)
Get through the steps
I don't wanna repeat 'cause
I let my guard down
She don't want part of the cliche
I turned into
Don't want her to see me that way
And face the truth
Time after time
Had to stop cold
Night after night
She takes control
But then
I give it up to the devil in me
And I, I let my guard down
(I let my guard down)
I've given up on her vision of me
When I let my guard down
(I let my guard down, hey)
She'll take me back if I make her believe
That I can finally come down
(can finally come down)
Get through the steps
I don't wanna repeat 'cause
I let my guard down
Let’s go
She takes control
I give it up to the devil in me
Yeah, I let my guard down
(I let my guard down)
I'm giving up on a vision of me
When I let my guard down
