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
My reflections are protection
They will keep me from destruction
My directions are distractions
When you´re ready, come into the light.
My reflections are protection
They will keep me from destruction
My directions are distractions
When you leave me, I´ll go back to hide.
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.

My reflections are protection
They will keep me from destruction
My directions are distractions
