Proteggiti Da Me

I don't really like compliments
I guess I deserve a few
For having messed with you
Even just imagining eyes that aren't yours

So damn me then
Erase my name from the book
Let the storm break loose
Drench my bold face
Let a lightning bolt hit me dead on

If only I had realized it was all wrong
That it was just another clash between rain and fire
Damn my jealousy that slips through my fingers
'Cause I admit I prefer your indifference to your leaving
How do I feel right now?

I'd say pretty much the same as before
That despite the rough ride, it renewed its courage
And from fear, a new limit
But now take my hands, take my hands, take my hands right now
And listen to me because
Because not everything is lost
Not all the good is gone
An entire universe of alternatives

If only I had realized it was all wrong
That it was just another clash between rain and fire
Damn my jealousy that slips through my fingers
'Cause I admit I prefer your indifference to your leaving

Protect yourself from me if you know how
Protect yourself from me, from me, from me
If you know how
Protect yourself from me, from me
If you know how
Protect yourself from me, from me, from me
If you know how

If only I had realized it was all wrong
That it was just another clash between rain and fire
And damn my jealousy that slips through my fingers
'Cause I admit I prefer your indifference to your leaving
Protect yourself from me, if you know how
And I'll turn off the light like this
You'll leave so fast
To protect yourself from me
