Taking Back Lyrics by Taylor Henderson

Burnt Letters

2014

The mind games you play don't work no more
Like a thousand times, before
You've crossed the line this time I just can't ignore
Tell me the truth, what was it for

Your words were dressed to impress
Designed to supress your voice
You think keeping me down
Will help you do like yourself some more

You thought I'd never find the truth you hide
You're the one who had me under your thumb last time
How could I be so blind, to your games and lies
Is it such a crime to be taking back what's mine

[Chorus]
Taking back what's mine
I won't be denied
It's my time to rise
Taking back what's mine
I won't be denied
It's my time to rise

Still trying to find the reasons why
Always left me, high and dry
I can't go on pretending it's alright
So tell me the truth, in black and white

Your words were dressed to impress
Designed to supress your voice
You think keeping me down
Will you do like yourself some more

You thought I'd never find the truth you hide
You're the one who had me under your thumb last time
How could I be so blind, to your games and lies
Is it such a crime to be taking back what's mine

[Chorus] x2

Taking back what's mine, I won't be denied, it's my time to rise
