Protector (feat. Sam Roberts)

Wanted to be your saviour

No one comes close to saving her

Believing your sorrow's contagious

It's only your secrets that plague us

Why won't you listen to me?

Why won't you listen to me?

Holding your reasons at night

You wake up convinced they are right

You like to stay locked in your cell

But you'd rather scream when you're unwell

Why won't you listen to me?

Why won't you listen to me?

Just when I think you can hear me

I hold on and praise you sincerely

But your eyes go empty and dead

And I know you haven't heard one word I've said

Why won't you listen to me?

Why won't you listen to me?

You didn't have to snap

I was just watching your back

Acting as your protector when I felt your attack
