AFI LYRICS - On The Arrow

"On The Arrow"



He said, "Who truly belongs here?"

Not I she said, I'll lie here with you

He knows no one shines forever

They change with the weather



He said, "I've now stayed too long here"

Good bye she said, I'll wait here for you

He knows the winds carry sorrow

As they leave she'll follow

They leave tomorrow



Fragments of joy torn apart

A freshly drained heart that beats

Disguise themselves through him

He'll say that it's nothing new

And swear this is true,

for you, I'll swallow the ocean



I'll swallow the ocean



He said, "Who truly belongs here?"

Not I she said, I'll lie here to you

I know the sorrow is sacred

And I'll never break you

I'll softly save you



Fragments of joy torn apart

A freshly drained heart that beats

Disguise themselves through him

He'll say that it's nothing new

And swear this is true,

for you, I'll swallow the ocean



I'll swallow the ocean
