The Archer Lyrics

Combat

I'm ready for combat

I say I don't want that

But what if I do?

'Cause cruelty

Wins in the movies

I've got a hundred thrown out speeches

I almost said to you

Easy they come,

Easy they go

I jump from the train

I ride off alone

I never grew up

It's getting so old

Help me hold on to you

I've been the archer

I've been the prey

Who could ever leave me darling...

But who could stay?

Dark side

I search for your dark side

But what if I'm all right

Right, right, right here?

And I cut off

My nose just to spite my face

Then I hate my reflection

For years and years

I wake in the night

I pace like a ghost

The room is on fire

Invisible smoke

And all of my heroes

Die all alone

Help me hold on to you

I've been the archer

I've been the prey

Screaming, "Who could ever leave me darling...

But who could stay?"

(I see right through me, I see right through me)

'Cause they see right through me

They see right through me

They see right through

Can you see right through me?

They see right through

They see right through me

I see right through me

All the king's horses

All the king's men

Couldn't put me together again

'Cause all of my enemies

Started out friends

Help me hold on to you

I've been the archer

I've been the prey

Who could ever leave me darling...

But who could stay?

(I see right through me, I see right through me)

Who could stay?

You could stay

Combat

I'm ready for combat
