Protection

[Chorus] Oh, my baby, now if you knew (Ah-ah-ah) But you only look out for you (Ah-ah-ah) Since you left, I'm heavy drinking You gave up just way too easy Oh, my baby, now if you knew (Ah-ah-ah) But you only look out for you (Ah-ah-ah) Since you left, I lack direction No longer in your protection [Verse 1] Last cigarette on your final drag (Yeah) At the end of your cul-de-sac (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Leave you on read, how cold is that? I think this place will hold you back (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Yeah, had to change a lot to change our view (Ah-ah-ah) What the hell was I meant to do? (Ah-ah) All these angles and you had to be obtuse (Uh, you had to) But none of these problems are acute, and this is not cute (Well) [Chorus] Oh, my baby, now if you knew (Ah-ah-ah) But you only look out for you (Ah-ah-ah) Since you left, I'm heavy drinking You gave up just way too easy Oh, my baby, now if you knew (Ah-ah-ah) But you only look out for you (Ah-ah-ah) Since you left, I lack direction No longer in your protection [Verse 2] On my car roof beneath the power lines (Yeah) Talking 'bout the future then it just arrives (Yeah) You slept on my sofa like every night Doing any job around to get us by (Yeah, yeah, yeah) You missed every birthday, every New Year's Eve (Ah-ah-ah) For that money, now you’re buying useless things (Ah-ah-ah) You were never happy being a human being (Oh no) 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 (Ah-ah-ah) But you only look out for you (Ah-ah-ah) Since you left, I'm heavy drinking You gave up just way too easy Oh, my baby, now if you knew (Ah-ah-ah) But you only look out for you (Ah-ah-ah) Since you left, I lack direction No longer in your protection
