I was born in a small small town
Folks worked all day till the sun came down
Before bed each night I'd say the Lord's prayer
But was I ever really aware
Three times a day when those bells would ring
The faithful would take a moment to sing
This was the world from what I could see
Is this how it's supposed to be
Then the weekend comes, I'm drawn by that neon glow
Now it's half past one and I know that I should go
Dancing a little too close to the devil's playground
He's pulling me in, he's spinning me 'round, 'round
My spirit is strong
But my flesh is weak
Dancing a little too close to the devil's playground
Tempted by sin, and he's pulling me down down
Now I'm falling, I'm falling so God please pull me back
'Cause I'm dancing a little too close
I tried to hide the struggle within
I tried so hard now just to fit in
Spend half our lives looking at our phones
We're all connected but still so alone
And when the weekend comes, I'm drawn by that neon glow
Now it's closing time and I know that I should go
Dancing a little too close to the devil's playground
He's pulling me in, he's spinning me 'round, 'round
My spirit is strong
But my flesh is weak
Dancing a little too close to the devil's playground
Tempted by sin, and he's pulling me down down
Now I'm falling, I'm falling so God please pull me back
'Cause I'm dancing a little too close
I've got to stand my ground this is all an illusion
The guilt sets in God please just get me home
Dancing a little too close to the devil's playground
He's pulling me in, he's spinning me 'round, 'round
My spirit is strong
But my flesh is weak
Dancing a little too close to the devil's playground
Tempted by sin and He's pulling me down down
Now I'm falling, I'm falling so God please pull me back
Oh, wont you lift me up and somehow put me back on track
'Cause I'm dancing a little too close
