Arrows Fly

Faking the truth in their eyes

Smile but they really deride

Never give you shelter

Lady all alone, naked to the bone

Make you bleed and melt into tears

Down on your knees you will see

What you could be

Raise the power in your eyes

Make us rise to make us say

Down and alone - arrows fly

Breaking on my soul

Down and alone - arrows fly

I remember times

When arrows hit me causing pain

All alone I've found my soul

And now my soul is sane

The night has come down on the land

I wanna reach out for her land

But she takes another

Lonesome in my room, staring at the moon

Treated like a bother

Down on my knees I have seen

What I can be

Raise the power in my eyes

Makes me rise to make me say

Down and alone - arrows fly

Breaking on my soul

Down and alone - arrows fly

I remember times

When arrows hit me causing pain

All alone I've found my soul

And now my soul is sane

Down and alone - arrows fly

Breaking on my soul

Down and alone - arrows fly

I remember times

When arrows hit me causing pain

All alone I've found my soul

And now my soul is sane

(...isn't loneliness a good reason to become acquainted with yourself?

And when you're down and out - aren't you compelled to face yourself?

And - if you know yourself - can the arrows of the world outside

hurt you anymore?...)
