You been tired, been told, been scolded
I want to reach you, I want to reach you
You been strong, been bold, been molded
I want to reach you, I want to reach you

You been burned, been fooled, been lied to
I want to reach you, I want to reach you
You been healed, been wise, been sung to
I want to reach you, I want to reach you

I want to reach you
 [bad word] me, I can feel what happened
I can hear your dangerous question [bad word] me, I can see you want protection
You want protection

You want protection

You been sold, been used and it changed you 
I want to reach you, I want to reach you
You been bought, been seen and been given to
I want to reach you, I want to reach you

You seen earth, seen fire, seen the broken
I want to reach you, I want to reach you
You seen heaven, seen rain, seen something
I want to reach you, I want to reach you

I want to reach you
 [bad word] me, I can feel what happened
I can hear your dangerous question [bad word] me, I can see you want protection
You want protection

You want protection
You want protection

I'll be with you 'til the end
Though I can't take your pain away
 [bad word] me, I can feel what happened
I can hear your dangerous question [bad word] me, I can see you want protection
You want protection
