Lyrics Protective - French Vanilla

Protective

When you walk, crossing the courtyard
Then in a second, I’ll be letting down my guard
I need a sympathetic ear to rely
Take all the time I need to identify
Someone who I can rely
You bring me something in the dead of night
And it was something that I knew I liked
Keep looking and you’re reaping the benefit
Keep talking and we enter the lion’s den
Tapping on the table now
Grinding your teeth now
Women have to build walls
Women have to build walls
Women have to build walls
Women have to build walls
Feeling so protective
And then I feel rejected
Projecting what I feel on
Mirror so reflective
Testing stable part or system
Waiting for someone who’ll listen
But I didn’t really mean it this time
I just said it to be nice
You bring me something in the dead of night
And it was something that I knew I liked
Keep looking and you’re reaping the benefit
Keep talking and we enter the lion’s den
Tapping on the table now
Grinding your teeth now
Women have to build walls
Women have to build walls
Women have to build walls
Women have to build walls
Feeling so protective
And then I feel rejected
Projecting what I feel on
Mirror so reflective
Build walls
Build walls
