Protecting me

My intuition screamed at me
Leave now before I fall too deep
But I just couldn't, it was like a drug to me
I fought my hardest so I wouldn't see
The side effects and what they did to me
And I pushed away, I tried to break free

Been losing sleep for quite some time
I had to quit now before I lost my mind

All the times of going back and forth
Thought that I had to explain my feelings
To make them valid, to make them more
And I just wanted you to fight for me
But I got fooled by my imagination
I had to leave, I had to move on

Protecting me, protecting me, protecting me

It was the fix I thought I'd always need
I wanted you to say you'd never leave
The withdrawal was just way too much for me

Been losing sleep for quite some time
I had to quit now before I lost my mind

All the times of going back and forth
Thought that I had to explain my feelings
To make them valid, to make them more
And I just wanted you to fight for me
But I got fooled by my imagination
I had to leave, I had to move on

Protecting me, protecting me, protecting me

That was my fix
Of all my tricks
I chose to close my eyes and pretend
Just need to leave and start protecting me

All the times of going back and forth
Thought that I had to explain my feelings
To make them valid, to make them more (got fooled by my imagination)
And I just wanted you to fight for me (it seams so difficult)
Wish I hadn't let myself hold on
And now I'm gone

Protecting me, protecting me, protecting me
Protecting me
