we let him in
I left the door on the latch when the sky turned red
You said “just a little rain,” pulled the sheets over your head
We laughed at every warning like it couldn’t touch us here
Now the water’s at the ceiling and we’re drowning in the mirror
Heard the floorboards screaming, still we turned the music loud
Called it living for the moment while the walls came crashing down
Left the warnings on the table like a bill we’ll never pay
Told ourselves tomorrow, but tomorrow never came
We saw the cracks, poured the drinks
Kissed the spark, didn’t blink
We let him in, we let him in
Lit the fire, fed the sin
Say we hate the way it ends
But we keep on letting him in
We let him in, we let him in
Hands up if you’re guilty too
Put your fucking hands up, this song’s for you
We let him, we let him, we let him in
Hey, hey, we let him in
Hey, hey, we let him in
He came back with that smile and the room went black
You wore the dress I only wore for him
We danced on broken glass like it was glitter in the cracks
Now the music’s getting louder and we’re begging him for that
We knew the game, loved the rush
Called it fate, called it us
Told ourselves it’s just one night
Till the morning never comes
We let him in, we let him in
Lit the fire, fed the sin
Say we hate the way it ends
But we keep on letting him in
We let him in, we let him in
Hands up if you’re guilty too
Put your fucking hands up, this song’s for you
We let him, we let him, we let him in
We thought the flames would burn them first
We thought the fall would never hurt
Now the smoke is in our lungs
And we’re choking on the words
We let him in, we let him in
Look around, we’re living in it
Hands up if you’re guilty too
Scream it loud, this song’s for you
Hey, hey, we let him in
Hey, hey, we let him in
Hey, hey, we let him in
Hey, hey, we let him in
We let him in…
We let him in…
