Defences
I take it all away
I take it all away
From you, I do, I take it all away
For you I tried to please, but it is time for a new day
I lay it all on the table, so you know that I'm available
Let you tell all your fables while I am bussing tables
Why can't I adjust what I've been trying?
Saying it's taking away breath I have been dying
I don't, I don't know why it's holding me
And I hate letting you have all our glory
I don't wanna be the one you take
Say that you would never be that straight up with how you loved on me
I don't even know if you loved me
I think that it's time for me to go and put my guard up
Taking all my time cuz I don't wanna be on the side
Maybe it's a normal thing to let people in and sting you heart to heart
So obviously
I put defences up cuz you say you don't know me
Say I'm defenseless love but I know you don't want me
I'm tired of the whispered lies you tried to sway my heart
Tired love made me wanna start a fire
On the fences, picket fences my love
I burn it all down til you fold and let me get what I want
Ahh, ahh
Defences, defences
I guess I thought it would be okay,
Almost opened up and then I almost met you halfway
I know that I should protect what I built and how I rep that
But something bout you took that, changed what is in my head
I'm happy that we once collided
I ran, but this time I was on time with the instincts
That I had, they helped me slide
And while I held your stare
I put my defences up cuz you know you don't love me
Say I'm defenseless love but I know you don't want me
I'm tired of the whispered lies you told to sway my heart
Tired love made me wanna start a fire
On the fences, picket fences my love,
I burn it all down til you fold and let me get what I want
Ahh, ahh
Defences, defences
Aye
Ahh, ahh
Defences, defences
Ahh, ahh
I take it all away
From you, I do, I take it all away
For you I tried to please, but it is time for a new day
I lay it all on the table, so you know that I'm available
Let you tell all your fables while I am bussing tables
Why can't I adjust what I've been trying?
Saying it's taking away breath I have been dying
I don't, I don't know why it's holding me
And I hate letting you have all our glory
I don't wanna be the one you take
Say that you would never be that straight up with how you loved on me
I don't even know if you loved me
I think that it's time for me to go and put my guard up
Taking all my time cuz I don't wanna be on the side
Maybe it's a normal thing to let people in and sting you heart to heart
So obviously
I put defences up cuz you say you don't know me
Say I'm defenseless love but I know you don't want me
I'm tired of the whispered lies you tried to sway my heart
Tired love made me wanna start a fire

I burn it all down til you fold and let me get what I want
Ahh, ahh
Defences, defences
Aye
Ahh, ahh
Defences, defences
Ahh, ahh
