Arrows

[Intro]

Just escape!

[Verse 1: Chris Mansfield]

My old man, he kicked me out, he kicked me out

When I told him that I live this way

I live this way, I live this way

I live this way, I live this way

I live this way, I live this way

I live this way, he doesn't own me

He doesn't own me, he doesn't own me

He doesn't own me (Just escape!)

[Chorus: Chris Mansfield]

Arrows land, we’re falling

Arrows were falling

Arrows land, we’re falling

Arrows were falling

[Verse 2: Chris Mansfield]

The black rims align your face

Like a deer drinking water in a picture frame

I swear to God I've seen those eyes

The back of my lids when closing mine

With clasped hands we shake it out, we shake it out

Lace our boots and we walk away

I felt slightly connected to him

And said now boy, now you own me

[Chorus: Chris Mansfield]

Arrows land, we’re falling

Arrows were falling

Arrows land, we’re falling

Arrows were falling

[Verse 3: Macklemore]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

He doesn't sleep

So in truth he never wakes up

Another day rushing to his death

Out of breath on the treadmill of the famous

He makes mistakes

Tells stories to his paintbrush

And when the world finally sees his art

He wishes that he never would have made it

Just escape, just escape

Ricochets and eclipses faith

Living in a city with a grey umbrella over your shoulders

And you're becoming suffocated by the weight

Can't hit those brakes, this is what you wanted, huh?

But you got it all in vain

'Cause you forgot who you are

Right as the world learned your name

It goes...

[Chorus: Chris Mansfield]

Arrows land, we’re falling

Arrows were falling

Arrows land, we’re falling

Arrows were falling

[Verse 4: Macklemore]

Let me ash my issues

Ashtray as this asphalt

American spirits, black coffee

Conversations and a passport

When God gives you everything

Everything that you ever asked for

And it still looks a bit different

Than when you pictured it on that back porch

And I'm gone

World traveller all I got is my songs

When the nights start blending into one another, and I don't recall

Tom Petty in this motherfucker, all I wanna do is free fall

Yeah, free fall

And I'm so caught up, I'm caught up

I'm caught up and I'm so tired

Swore that I wouldn't stare into the light

And guess who tried it, shit, I'm blinded

By this lime light, this lime light

It's all night, it's all day

These bright lights, these bright lights

Once you turn 'em on you can't walk away

Don't die here, don't die here

I came too far, I'm too great

But I'm too scared, I'm too afraid

To stare this world into its face

I'm almost home, I'm driving lost

My eyelids close, life turns to grey

The cameras off, the show is over

You close the curtains and just escape

[Chorus: Chris Mansfield]

Arrows land, we’re falling

Arrows were falling

Arrows land, we’re falling

Arrows were falling

[Outro: Chris Mansfield]

I live this way, I live this way

I live this way, I live this way

I live this way, I live this way

I live this way, I live this way

[Outro]

Just escape!
