Arrows Lyrics

Feed me to the sea and I will take the rest down with me

They shot arrows at the sun in vain

Said goodbye to everything and anything

Cause everything we've seen is ours for the taking

And anything we touch is quickly, quickly fading

It's all wasted

It's all wasted

It's time to face Goliath

Stones, and slings, and bags of sand

"Cry Havoc!" And let slip the bones that hold the land

All that glitters is wasted on the Young and the Beautiful

So, plant your feet, kiss the weeds

Pray to god we move what is immovable

We were only kids when the window came crashing in, raining glass on our skin

And the voice of the world outside filled our heads for the first time

It was the words we heard on the wind that drove us to cower under covers

Not the mouth in the wall vomiting water and debris on the hardwood

Not our fathers frantic attempts to dull the roar

It was the words we plucked from the air, the ones we never could make out

That keeps me crawling on bloodied limbs back to the places

I've found beneath my feet

To listen for the word or phrase we missed so long ago

Now, I sift through concrete walls and solid steel

Open a new mouth in the walls of my home and let the hanging colors bleed in

Hold my ear to jagged lips and listen closely this time

Let air and color lead me where they will

Step Outside!

Feed me to the sea and I will take the rest down with me

They show arrows at the sun in vain

Said goodbye to Everything!

Feed me to the sea and I will take the rest down with me

They show arrows at the sun in vain

Anything we touch is quickly fading

We were only kids when the window came crashing in

Step Outside, face Goliath

Step Outside, face Goliath

Step Outside, face Goliath

Step Outside

Step Outside, face Goliath

Say goodbye to Everything

Step Outside, face Goliath

Say goodbye to Everything

We were only kids when the window came crashing in
