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 want to 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?) --- Arrows Fly - Edguy
