Reflections

La Roux - Reflections Are Protection

Please

Please be my light-filter

Shine, make me a shelter

To hide, cause love makes you lose your sight.

And now the search party's on its way

And the floodlights on my face

All the shadows that I walk in

Arch my volatile second skin

My reflections are protection

They will keep me from destruction

My directions are distractions

When you're ready, come into the light.

Lines

Design a pathway

Shine, cut out the dark shapes

To find

Although I really tried

Only time is a lover's guide

And now the railings fall away

And the stencils draw a face

Our outlines in the sunset

Are just a fragile silhouette

If you leave me, I'll go back to hide

My reflections are protections

When you leave me, I'll go back to hide

If you leave me I'll go back to hide
