Poison Arrow
Miles from home,
'Round here they'll never miss me.
Everybody disappears one by one,
And no one hears a thing.
The razor wire makes me uneasy,
It catches the moon,
Shes smiling to see me.
Fear could never keep me here,
But fate could always keep me here.
Don't look now,
Another poison arrow pointed at you.
Don't look now,
Another poison arrow pointed at you.
Lost and never found,
It's a long way down,
We are the paper targets,
Dear departed,
Got you where they want you now.
Lost and never found,
It's a long way down,
We are the paper targets,
Dear departed,
Got you where they want you now.
Miles from home,
No one will ever miss you.
Paranoid are friends are frisked,
We sleep in shifts,
And no one dares to dream.
Black birds fly over our heads,
But we're so alive,
Just being misread.
Fear could never keep me here,
But fate could always keep me here.
Don't look now,
Another poison arrow pointed at you.
Don't look now,
Another poison arrow pointed at you.
Lost and never found,
It's a long way down,
We are the paper targets,
Dear departed,
Got you where they want you now.
Lost and never found,
It's a long way down,
We are the paper targets,
Dear departed,
Got you where they want you now.
They got you under lock and key,
And it's killing me.
(It's killing me)
They got you under lock and key,
And it's killing me.
(It's killing me)
They got you under lock and key,
And it's killing me.
(It's killing me)
They got you under lock and key,
And it's killing me.
Lost and never found,
It's a long way down,
We are the paper targets,
Dear departed,
Got you where they want you now.
Lost and never found,
It's a long way down,
We are the paper targets,
Dear departed,
Got you where they want you now.
Lost and never found,
It's a long way down,
We are the paper targets,
Dear departed,
Got you where they want you now.
Lost and never found,
It's a long way down,
We are the paper targets,
Dear departed,
Got you where they want you now.
