Arrow

I bend and I saw in ways I never would’ve thought possible
before today and I don’t think that makes me weak
I think that makes me alright ‘cause I’m leaning in and you’re obviously the
light
whoever told me it was all good
that you to be lonely to live out all your dreams
whoever showed me the bill o' goods
that you had to be lonesome to suffer for your art
should be gently scarred, should be torn apart
with an arrow, straight through the heart
with an arrow, the prettiest dart
with an arrow, straight through the sky
chasing the moonlight like it was goodbye
with an arrow straight through the earth
breaking an angel’s fall, breaking this curse
with an arrow… a beautiful burst
it took me ten long years to become this tangled up
learning to make love to this city that I adore and
looking back now and knowing you were right here all along
makes me feel pity for my past
whoever told me it was all good
that you to be lonely to live out all your dreams
whoever showed me the bill ‘o goods
that you had to be lonesome to suffer for your art
should be gently scarred, should be torn apart
I’m over the moon
dark chocolate and out of tune
with the reasons I ever lived so swiftly
the years rushing past
likes waves of broken glass
downing me when I should’ve just been drifting
just been drifting
