Don't Protect Me

[00:12.73] Pain is a gift
[00:14.89] Within reason and when things end
[00:18.55] Y'know it feels like a little death
[00:24.83] I'm here in the rift
[00:27.72] And even though I know that I don't suffer half as much
[00:33.82] Who am I to judge the pain I've been in?
[00:38.80] 'Cause losing makes room
[00:41.98] For a new bloom
[00:45.15] I thought you would protect me
[00:47.95] But I don't need your protection anymore
[00:53.22] I don't want a hiding place
[00:55.46] I just wanna feel whatever comes my way
[00:58.31] Even from a heartbreak like an earthquake
[01:01.58] Let it lay me out
[01:04.77] I just wanna learn from big mistakes
[01:08.18] Instead of fearing everything and staying the same
[01:11.34] Even from a bad day like a tidal wave
[01:14.48] Let it take me down
[01:21.32] I'm tryna to shut it out
[01:23.76] But selective numbine's about as possible as tryin' not to blink
[01:29.27] Not to think about the one thing on your mind
[01:34.02] Around and around
[01:35.95] We'll go running in circles trying to keep the spiral from caving in
[01:44.16] To say everything's fine
[01:47.43] 'Cause losing's made room
[01:50.88] For a new bloom
[01:54.04] I thought you would protect me
[01:57.09] But I don't need your protection anymore
[02:01.32] I don't want a hiding place
[02:03.95] I just wanna feel whatever comes my way
[02:06.88] Even from a heartbreak like an earthquake
[02:10.15] Let it lay me out
[02:13.33] I just wanna learn from big mistakes
[02:16.84] Instead of fearing everything and staying the same
[02:20.09] Even from a bad day like a tidal wave
[02:23.45] Let it take me down
[02:28.55] Don't protect me
[02:30.97] Don't want protection anymore
[02:35.72] Let it wreck me
[02:38.41] Take something with me from the floor
[02:48.81] I don't want a hiding place
[02:51.04] I just wanna feel whatever comes my way
[02:54.47] Even from a heartbreak like an earthquake
[02:57.63] Let it lay me out
[03:01.02]
