The Arrow (02/03/05)

The arrow sinks into my skin

Nothing I do ever seems right

A foul target to set sights on

Why is everything I do wrong

I wish I was here, just holding you

I wish I was here, just protecting you

I wish I was here, just watching you

Instead, I’m here, just missing you

Fear sinks further into my skin

I’d forfeit everything for you

You own a special part of me

Clutching my heart with your warm hands

I wish I was here, just holding you

I wish I was here, just protecting you

I wish I was here, just watching you

Instead, I’m here, just missing you

Crying inside, bleeding inside

Nothing will ever change!!!

Drive me away, take me away

Such a tearful exchange!!!

I wish I was here, just holding you

I wish I was here, just protecting you

I wish I was here, just watching you

Instead, I’m here, just missing you

Letting you go, too hard to do

Crying inside to be set free

My severed heart, on the floor

Can’t leave the splendor of your eyes

Instead, I’m here, just missing you
