God Protect Your Soul - Ed Harcourt

Well I hope God protects your soul 
I don't know if you should leave home alone 
Maybe you've been drinking from the Devil's bowl 
I can't express myself 'cause I'm not fully grown 

My heartache, is my mistake you see 
My heartache, is my mistake you see 

Well I am conscious of the way that I act 
But I won't betray you, you can be sure of that 
I'm not a pet who does tricks at the drop of a hat 
I wish I was fiction, I wish I was fact 

My heartache, is my mistake you see 
My heartache, is my mistake you see 

I need to build a wall around me 
I need to build a wall around me 
But I want to smile with everybody 
Would you say that is possessive of me? 
Would you say that is possessive of me? 

Yes we feel bad in winter 
We act a little bit strange 
The dark sky threatens me daily 
Makes me alter and change, change, change, change 

I need to build a wall around me
I need to build a wall around me 
But I want to smile with everybody 
Would you say that is possessive of me? 
Would you say that is possessive of me? 

I need to build a wall around me
I need to build a wall around me 
But I want to smile with everybody 
Would you say that is possessive of me? 
Would you say that is possessive of me?
