Protection Lyrics
Oh heaven sends him down to me
And he’s got everything I’ll ever need
Just for 16 days, I let him tie down
The frailest part of my body
I am small but in your arms
You are colder in your heart
I am worthless in your arms
But you offer this protection no one else has given me
You just keep talking down to me
Taking all of my hair pulled back
I gave him 16 days
I let him choke out the frailest part of my body
Hush now, here there is no trouble
Quiet down, you know that I have got you
But I’m spinning out into a bottle
Where’s my connection to you
It’s my protection
And he’s got everything I’ll ever need
Just for 16 days, I let him tie down
The frailest part of my body
You are colder in your heart
I am worthless in your arms
But you offer this protection no one else has given me
Taking all of my hair pulled back
I gave him 16 days
I let him choke out the frailest part of my body
Quiet down, you know that I have got you
But I’m spinning out into a bottle
Where’s my connection to you
It’s my protection

To me this song comes across as the need to connect with a loved one ... someone to hold you in your time of need.
I get the impression the whole album that this track appears on is relating to an impending "death", and I think that this song ties into that by being that glimpse of last hope (or at least holding onto life for that bit longer ... their protection be it from death).
