Protection

It wasn't perfection I was expecting when I met you

It's nearly midnight, girl, when the clock strikes, what do you turn back to?

And if I got used, it's all that I wanted, all that I wanted

For all that I knew I needed protection, now I need protection

From you

Hung out on your friends list to see who you went with and how they know you

Sent token gestures to serial texters in capital letters, the louder the better

You come for my queen, you better be loaded, create an explosion

The second you miss, you'll need protection, there'll be no protection

The broken mirror's not reflecting part of me

Can't see the future but I know it's got its eye on me

Cause you're all that I need and that's all as my world comes crashing down

When you're out of my reach

I've seen the future, everyone's older and nobody's there for you

You spin off the rails chasing your tail as everything fails, do you want all the details?

I'm coming for you, changing your routine won't help you elude me

You'll never find proof, find some protection, cause you'll need protection

The broken mirror's not reflecting part of me

Can't see the future but I know it's got its eye on me

Cause you're all that I need, and that's all as my world comes crashing down

When you're out of my reach
