Kent - Protection Lyrics

I tried so hard to make yousmile
For once I tried to be myself
So I never tried again

I made you scared I made you cry
And you tried to tell me how you feel
I couldn't hear you say a thing
You tried to tell me how you feel
Chorus:
I wasn't listening, I wasn't listening

Now they fill us with fear
It took me twenty-nine years to reach perfection
Your voice disappears
Computerized rejections
On a bad connection
It gets lonely out here
Are you protecting me
I need protection, please
Now I found a way to make you smile

pretending I am someone else
More than I missed myself
You found a way to keep it inside
To a point where you can't feel a thing
Cause I really missed your smile
And silence suits us fine
When we're not listening

no, we're not listening
Chorus but not "I need protection, please"
Are you protecting me
Are you protecting me
Are you protecting me...
