On An Arrow
We're all friends
Till out of necessity
We become enemies
You were 4 and I was 6
I was 8 and you were 6
I was 15 and you were 16
We're all friends
Till out of necessity
We become enemies
Girls came
From both sides
I hung the love on an arrow
You were 4 and I was 6
Tomorrow I'll be better
Leave your hands clinging to my feet
Leave this skin in the sand
Leave this hell raising from morning till night
I'll hang the truth on an arrow
And you'll plait haloes around my head
In the corners
It's my own shadow
So let me stand straight
Learn a thing for two about letting go
