Crowded House Archer's Arrows
Kids kissing on the floor
They make a work of art
Upon 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 facade 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 colors come down
Take out
The pale imitation
The whole facade 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
Hey, hey
See the archer's arrows fade
See the archer's arrows fade
Hey, hey
