REFLECTIONS ARE PROTECTIONS
by La Roux
Bm Bb
Leaves please be my light filter
Am
Shine make me a shelter
Cm Gmaj* F#maj
To hide Cos this love makes you lose your sight
Bm Bb
Now the search party's is on its way
Am
And the floodlight's on my face
Cm
All the shadows that I walk in
Gmaj* F#maj
Are just my volatile second skin
Bm A
My reflections are protections
D Gm
They will keep me from destruction
Bm A
My directions are distractions
D Gm
When you're ready come into the light
Bm Bb
Bm Bb
Lines design a pathway
Am
Shine cut out the dark shapes
Cm
To find although I really tried
Gmaj* F#maj
Only time is a lover's guide
Bm Bb
And now the railings fall away
Am
And the stencils draw a face
Cm
Our outlines in the sunset
Gmaj* F#maj
Are just a fragile silhouette
Bm A
My reflections are protections
D Gm
They will keep me from destruction
Bm A
My directions are distractions
D Gm
When you're ready come into the light
Bm A
My reflections are protections
D Gm
They will keep me from destruction
Bm A
My directions are distractions
D Gm
If you leave me I'll go back to hide

When you're ready come into the light
Bm A
My reflections are protections

They will keep me from destruction

My directions are distractions

If you leave me I'll go back to hide
