[Verse 1] I built these walls so carefully Stone by stone, methodically Never let anyone get too close That's the rule I valued most But you walked in like you belonged Made me question what went wrong With my perfect system of control Now you're breaking through my soul [Pre-Chorus] I should walk away, I know Keep my distance, let you go But something in the way you smile Makes me want to stay awhile [Chorus] You're dangerous, dangerous Breaking down my defenses Making me feel reckless When I'm supposed to be senseless Dangerous, so dangerous Getting past my pretenses Why do I keep falling When I know you're dangerous [Verse 2] I tell myself it's just a phase This feeling that I can't erase Professional is what I am But you make me forget the plan Late night calls I shouldn't take Worried thoughts that keep me awake Checking if you made it home When I should just leave you alone [Pre-Chorus] I should stick to what I know Keep my feelings under control But the way you say my name Sets my careful heart aflame [Chorus] You're dangerous, dangerous Breaking down my defenses Making me feel reckless When I'm supposed to be senseless Dangerous, so dangerous Getting past my pretenses Why do I keep falling When I know you're dangerous [Bridge] I've spent years perfecting this facade Cold and distant, playing it hard But you see right through the mask I wear Like you've always been standing there I protect what matters most to me That's my job, my responsibility But now you matter more than I planned And I don't know where to make my stand [Final Chorus] You're dangerous, dangerous (Maybe that's what I've been missing) Breaking down my defenses (Maybe I've been resisting) Making me feel reckless (Something that could heal this) When I'm supposed to be senseless (Emptiness I'm feeling) Dangerous, so dangerous (But I can't let you go) Getting past my pretenses (This is all I know) Why do I keep falling (Maybe falling's not so bad) When I know you're dangerous (You're the best risk I never had) [Outro] Stone by stone, you're breaking through Maybe dangerous is what I need from you…
