Allday – Protection lyrics

[Chorus]
Oh my baby now, if you knew
But you only look out for you
Since you left, I'm heavy drinking
You gave up just way too easy
Oh my baby now, if you knew
But you only look out for you
Since you left, I lack direction
No longer in your protection

[Verse 1]
Last cigarette on your final drag
At the end of your cul-de-sac
Leave you on read, how cold is that
I think this place will hold you back
Had to change a lot to change our view
What the hell was I meant to do
All these angles and you had to be obtuse
But none of these problems are acute
And this is not cute

[Chorus]
Oh my baby now, if you knew
But you only look out for you
Since you left, I’m heaving drinking
You gave up just way too easy
Oh my baby now, if you knew
But you only look out for you
Since you left, I lack direction
No longer in your protection


[Verse 2]
On my car roof beneath the power lines
Talking 'bout the future then it just arrives
You slept on my sofa like every night
Doing any job around to get us by
You missed every birthday, every New Year's Eve
For that money now you’re buying useless things
You were never happy being a human being
Is anyone up there as blue as me
Wherever you may be

[Interlude]
Archangel Michael, protect me from all negative spirits
You know what I'm saying, protect me from all negative spirits
Protect me from lower vibrational beings
You know what I'm saying, nothing's going to mess with you
Because you've got the protection

[Verse 3]
Yeah, our family name has curses
And some magic they can’t purchase
Me and that city linked, it's cursive
But I had to go all in, immersive
And they’ll hit you, hope you stay down
In your best jeans with your chain out
While you're wedged into a Greyhound
On the main road heading straight out


[Chorus]
Oh my baby now, if you knew
But you only look out for you
Since you left, I’m heaving drinking
You gave up just way too easy
Oh my baby now, if you knew
But you only look out for you
Since you left, I lack direction
No longer in your protection
