La Roux - Reflections Are Protections Lyrics






Please, please be my light filter
Shine, make me a shelter
To hide this love
Makes you lose your sign
Now the search party's on its way
And the flood lights are on my face
All the shadows that I walk in
Are just my volatile second skin

My reflections are protections
They will keep me from destruction
My directions are distractions
When you're ready come into the light

Lines, design a pathway
Shine, cut out the dark shapes
To find, although I really tried
Only time is a lover's guide
And now the ratings fall away
And the stencils draw a face
Our outlines in the sunset
Are just a fragile silhouette

My reflections are protections
They will keep me from destruction
My directions are distractions
When you're ready come into the light

My reflections are protections
They will keep me from destruction
My directions are distractions
If you leave me, I'll go back to hide

My reflections are protections
They will keep me from destruction
My directions are distractions
When you're ready come into the light

My reflections are protections
They will keep me from destruction
My directions are distractions
If you leave me, I'll go back to hide

  1. D.... C....

    This song still slaps harder than Chris Brown.

  2. J.... R....

    These keyboard sounds like Nick Rhodes.

  3. A.... S....

    Please, please be my light filter
    Shine, make me a shelter
    To hide this love
    Makes you lose your sign
    Now the search rise is on its way
    And the flood lights are on my face
    All the shadows that I woke up in
    Are just my volatile second skin
    My reflections are protections
    They will keep me from destruction
    My directions are distractions
    When you're ready come into the light
    Lines, design a pathway
    Shine, cut out the dark shapes
    To find, although I really tried
    Only time is a lover's guide
    And now the ratings fall away
    And the stencils draw a face
    Our outlines in the sunset
    Are just a fragile silhouette
    My reflections are protections
    They will keep me from destruction
    My directions are distractions
    When you're ready come into the light
    My reflections…

  4. T.... M....

    I love this song its my ringtone.

  5. B.... R....

    Doesn’t get old.

  6. M.... ....

    Damn, this beat is hot

  7. N.... P....

    El Shaddai means God Almighty in Hebrew
    It comes from the Akkadian word shaddu which means mountain
    The Arabic word for mountain is sana
    Sana means thread of summer in Japanese
    Sana means eternity in Sanskrit
    The Ancient Jews believed that the earth(cosmos in Greek) was flat
    Albert Einstein modeled the cosmos with an infinite flat sheet of space/time
    A black hole is an infinite pit in space/time
    An infinite mountain in space/time would be an infinite white hole.
    Dark Energy and Dark Matter can be explained by finite quantum spinning white holes(tachyons) that exist for a few planck instances.
    Some scientists believe that the big bang was a white hole
    If God is an infinite white hole than the Father would be the infinite singularity of the white hole, the Son would be the infinite tachyon, and the Holy Spirit would be the infinite tachyonic wave(space)
    Space does not expand: The cosmos is shrinking while space is constant. This means that the speed of light is shrinking each planck instant in a way that makes it appear constant
    If the cosmos is shrinking then the density of energy is increasing.
    This means that all energy will become a black hole because of Schwarzschild radius
    The beginning of the big bang had 0 entropy which means 100% of the universe was light
    The universe now has less than 5% light
    Conclusion the 3 dimensional cosmos is inbetween an infinite infinitely dimensional white hole and an infinite 0 dimensional black hole.
    Good does not need evil to exist
    Black Holes are not eternal because of Hawking radiation
    If you don't abide in Jesus Christ you will be deleted
    You have the choice to be loved everlastingly or to suffer infinite entropy as your last memory that seems forever because 0 time is eternal to a tachyon
    Please choose the Perfect Agape of God.

    Leaves, please be my light filter
    Shine, make me a shelter to hide
    Cos love makes you lose your sight
    Now the search party's on its way
    And the flood lights on my face
    All the shadows that I walk in
    Are just my volatile second skin

    My reflections are protections
    They will keep me from destruction
    My directions are distractions
    When you're ready come into the light

    Lines, design a pathway
    Shine, cut out the dark shapes
    To find, although I really tried
    Only time is a lover's guide
    And now the railings fall away
    And the stencils draw a face
    Our outlines in the sunset
    Are just a fragile silhouette

    My reflections are protections
    They will keep me from destruction
    My directions are distractions
    When you're ready come into the light

    My reflections are protections
    They will keep me from destruction
    My directions are distractions
    If you leave me, I'll go back to hide

    My reflections are protections
    They will keep me from destruction
    My directions are distractions
    When you're ready come into the light

    My reflections are protections
    They will keep me from destruction
    My directions are distractions
    If you leave me, I'll go back to hide

    A.... L....

    Thank you so much! I love this song

  28. T.... M....

  29. V.... N....

    ♡♡♡This song is catchy this is one of my fav songs from her♡♡♡

  30. A.... H....

    This is my favorite track from the Sonic the Hedgehog soundtrack.

    A.... H....

    Gotta go fast!

    A.... H....

    looool yes. that's immediately what I thought of upon hearing this.

    A.... H....

    +Andrew Hawes Keep flinging those rings into the slots!

    A.... H....

    hilarious and original

    A.... H....

    This made me laugh so hard

  31. M.... M....

    hmm dissapointed by the amount of likes on this song. this isnt her most popular, but in my opinion her most creative peace of art. I guess people dont understand what she is actually saying in this song.She is talking about everything bad from her past, reflecting on them, they become her protection and keep her from destruction. so true. i love lA ROUX

    M.... M....

    +Maddi Mclynn Thanks for your input, as the expert on La Roux and everything. I'm so glad you took the time to speak with Ben and Elly to find out exactly what they meant so you could tell everyone else how wrong they are.

    M.... M....

    +Maddi Mclynn So... basically, she's learning from what has happened in the past.

    My reflections are protection - she's learned from her mistakes or has learned to be at least more observant.

    They keep me from destruction - as a result of what she's learnt she will no long need to worry about anything or at least very little going wrong.

    My directions are distractions - she is stating that she doesn't want to try to be something she's not. Perhaps, in the past, she may have felt as though she has to fit in, however doing this could have got her in trouble or hurt.

    If you leave me, Ill go back to hide - although she is more confident and aware now, she still wants some one to be there for her to help and support her. And if she ever gets left alone, she will go back to hide in solitude. alone.

    i think. correct me if im wrong or tell me your interpretations.

    M.... M....

    Some people forget to like. :/

    M.... M....

    How is the creative? It's a complete ripoff of INXS.

  32. P.... C....

    such a cool track for today.

    @eisfh"God's fav creation" if you say that, what does that make you? gods waste of space on the side? you should rate yourself a lot more (think about what your gushing about Elly jackson) . I hate seeing people adore celebrities so much without realizing what they're REALLY saying about themselves by inference.

  68. D.... E....

    omg I thought she was saying "My Erections are distractions, when you're ready come into the light" i was like wtf... Then I read comments where someone posted that piece of lyric, and now I hear directions easily :p

  69. O.... ....

    AMAZING NO D*S*I *ES
    .-. and after two days someones going to take it upon themselves to d*s*i*e it even though they like this song.. :/ what douches . eh *shrugs * human nature I guess..
