Crowded House - Archer's Arrows lyrics
[Crowded House - Archer's Arrows lyrics]
They make a work of art
Up on the gallery wall
They take the world apart and no one’s safe
The tension on the string we’re almost there
It’s time to reign over the king
The archer fires away (Send an arrow up)
We hope to rise again (Like an invitation)
Aim high then the arrow comes down
Take out the pale imitation
The whole façade is wearing thin
We'll just paper over cracks
‘Til people take the power back
Moving out the cavalcade
We live to fight another day
See the arrows fly
They tempt you with a prize
Make you master of the house
You look so indifferent now
With the sucker hanging from your mouth
But, you can’t be safe
You can’t betray your will we’re almost gone
It’s time to take over the hill
The archer fires away (Send an arrow up)
We hope to rise again (Like an invitation)
Aim high when the colours come down
Take out the pale imitation
The whole façade is wearing thin
We just paper over cracks
‘Til people take the power back
Moving out the cavalcade
We live to fight another day
See the archer’s arrows fade (Hey, hey)
See the archer’s arrows fade (Hey, hey)
See the archer’s arrows fade
(Soon find out if we make a mark)
See the archer’s arrows fade
(Soon find out, leave an arrow in my heart)
See the archer’s arrows fade
See the archer’s arrows fade
