Placebo - Protect Me From What I Want Lyrics






It's the disease of the age
It's the disease that we crave
Alone at the end of the rave
We catch the last bus home

Corporate America wakes
Coffee republic and cakes
We open the latch on the gate
Of the hole that we call our home

Protect me from what I want...
Protect me protect me

Maybe we're victims of fate
Remember when we'd celebrate
We'd drink and get high until late
And now we're all alone

Wedding bells ain't gonna chime
With both of us guilty of crime
And both of us sentenced to time
And now we're all alone

Protect me from what I want...
Protect me protect me
Protect me from what I want...
Protect me protect me

Protect me from what I want...
Protect me protect me
Protect me from what I want...
Protect me protect me

    It's the disease of the age
    It's the disease that we crave
    Alone at the end of the rave
    We catch the last bus home
    Corporate America wakes
    Coffee republic in case
    We open the latch on the gate
    Of the hole that we call our home

  9. P.... A....

    Holy shit there’s an English version?

  10. �.... �....

    C'est le malaise du moment 
    L'épidémie qui s'étend 
    La fête est finie, on descend 
    Les pensées qui glacent la raison 
    Paupières baissées, visages gris 
    Surgissent les fantômes de notre lit 
    On ouvre le loquet de la grille 
    Du taudis qu'on appelle maison

    Protect me from what I want 
    Protect me from what I want 
    Protect me from what I want

    Sommes-nous les jouets du destin 
    Souviens-toi des moments divins 
    Planant, éclatés, au matin 
    Et maintenant nous sommes tout seuls 
    Perdus les rêves de s'aimer 
    Le temps où on avait rien fait 
    Il nous reste toute une vie pour pleurer 
    Et maintenant nous sommes tout seuls

    Protect me from what I want 
    Protect me from what I want 
    Protect me from what I want

    It's the disease of the age

    We open the latch on the gate
    Of the hole that we call our home

    Protect me from what I want,
    Protect me protect me

    Maybe we're victims of fate
    Remember when we'd celebrate
    We'd drink and get high until late
    And now we're all alone

    Wedding bells ain't gonna chime
    With both of us guilty of crime
    And both of us sentenced to time
    And now we're all alone

    Protect me from what I want,
    Protect me protect me

    Protect me from what I want,

  25. J.... H....

    How about protection from damaging negative things you love from which you never escape

  26. M.... S....

    No saben cuánto amo a esta banda
    La empecé a escuchar cuando tenía como 5 años
    Ahorita tengo 17
    Todo fue por qué una vez ví el vídeo de this picture
    Y de hay empecé a investigar sobre ellos
    Los amo Placebo ❤️❤️

  27. B.... ....

    Hell 💕👍

  28. i.... ....

    Basically protect me from my self!! Genius!! Poet genius!!

  29. e.... ....

    This band is underrated. fuck everyone

  30. S.... S....

    “Protect me from what ı want” write this on the condom

    S.... S....

    won`t
    lol:3

    S.... S....

    Hahahahahaha comment of the year

    S.... S....

    Haha this is hilarious! you made my day!

    S.... S....

    It would be "protect me from what I do not want", if its from something you do want, why would you protect for?

    S.... S....

    VIVIANA you didn’t understand nothing 😂

  31. E.... C....

    I love French because it’s such a beautiful language but I can’t see how anyone likes the French version of this song . The auto tune really ruins it for me because Brian already has an amazing voice .

    E.... C....

    play this as loud as possible, the sudden finish makes your ears ring and gave me goosebumps

    L.... B....

    That's called tinnitus, your ears ring from damaging them after hearing enough loud sounds if you continue to do so, not a good thing man.

  40. R.... L....

    Je trouve que la version française et mieux.

    R.... L....

    Parce que tu comprend les paroles ...sinon à l'école y avait l'anglais
    ..lol

  41. L.... ....

    this song is perfect for the times when you want things you feel guilty about

    "Protect Me From What I Want"

    It's the disease of the age
    It's the disease that we crave
    Alone at the end of the rave
    We catch the last bus home

    Corporate America wakes
    Coffee republic and cakes
    We open the latch on the gate
    Of the hole that we call our home

    Protect me from what I want...
    Protect me protect me

    Maybe we're victims of fate
    Remember when we'd celebrate
    We'd drink and get high until late
    And now we're all alone

    Wedding bells ain't gonna chime
    With both of us guilty of crime
    And both of us sentenced to time
    And now we're all alone

    Protect me from what I want...
    Protect me protect me
    Protect me from what I want...
    Protect me protect me

  60. L.... ....

    Protège-moi protège-moi...

  61. Z.... A....

    this version sounds so weird after listening to the french version for ages

    Z.... A....

    well i am french and i prefer the english version, to me the french version seems weird (lyrics are not the same) so..

    Z.... A....

    Benim için ise tam tersi oldu, ilk bu versiyonuyla tanışmamdan ötürü heralde.

    Z.... A....

    Zeynep Akcakaya ikr?

    Z.... A....

    Ever see the French video? Literally porn, but a good video

    Z.... A....

    i honestly prefer this version, the placing of the words makes more sense (if that even makes sense haha)

  62. c.... ....

    It really does sound "weird" in english. :p
    For me the french version is an absolute masterpiece! Granted, the lyrics are similar but I prefer the french one.
    Brian sings with so much passion in it as well!

  63. B.... L....

    Excelente!!!! Me faltan palabras para describir esta canción! Magistral

    B.... L....

    Be Len tampoco es para tanto

    B.... L....

    Be Len es magistral y lo sabes.. digan lo que digan!!

  64. T.... M....

    dear lord
    this song is the best !
    makes me feel a lot of things

    T.... M....

    Tann Medi your beautiful!, dont ever feel anything but love for your self!! :)

  65. S.... A....

    Потрясающе! :)
    P.S Привет от Ларина.

    S.... A....

    пофиг что отвечаю через 3 года, но то чувство когда только в 2018 начала смотреть Ларина, и то когда узнала, что он слушает пласов

  66. d.... p....

    Mélodie entêtante , enivrante,j' adore

  71. f.... m....

    Placebo protect us all from what we want and that's clear, the message spread in this song means we don't have anything to be scared off, even when you feel appalled or threatened Placebo will be there to drive out hatred and dangers, truthfully!

  72. V.... M....

    where can I find the official video?

    V.... M....

    +Valentino Marra You can find it on Vimeo.com but the song is in French and the title is "Protège moi"

    V.... M....

    +Lucky4souls thanks

    V.... M....

    orgies taking place in it

  75. P.... D....

    This song is so weird in English!

    P.... D....

    Phoenix Dawn only version I know

  76. H.... K....

    Isn't it weird, how songs can sometimes perfectly fit our personal situations in life? Right now I really need something to protect me from what I want. 

    H.... K....

    @Hermetic Kitten Wow. It was weird to find you here, but I admire a lot the creativity of your work (and owe you lots of nights of sleep). I hope you can find what you are looking for, cara maga, you really deserve it for what you've done for lots of us.

    H.... K....

    Hermetic Kitten 👍🏻

    H.... K....

    Well that's the irony, right? No one can really protect us from what we want. The onus is on us to learn to not want these things that harm us. Unfortunately, our brains do a great job of blinding us from seeing the danger we might even fully know is there... "Protecting" us from what we need and embracing the horrors of what we "want".

    H.... K....

    is it crack?

  77. R.... U....

    Just most amazing song
    I'm crying
