about

‘Arrows’ sets the tone for 'Reverie'. The driving rhythm provides the perfect backdrop for the oldest lyrics on the record. The imagery of arrows being shot portray piercing internal catastrophisations that slowly weighs you down and keeps you up at night. The song explores a loss of confidence and gives a snippet of the battle against your internal monologue through Daniel’s vocal feature.

lyrics

I couldn't describe if I tried
the way I felt back then
imagery in my head
that hurt so bad
a pain I won't forget
what it's like to be alive
while you're feeling dead inside
Look to my eyes they’ll tell you why
(I’m not there anymore)

All my fuck ups and do wrongs
Will haunt me when I’m gone
They’re keeping me awake

Your arrows are shot into me
And I fall asleep
Hoping the pain will just leave me
Your arrows are shot into me
And I fall asleep
Hoping the pain will just leave me

It wasn't me, who I used to be
Tired, laid to rest
I couldn't take it anymore
But maybe I deserved it
To sleep and not wake up again
Sounded like heaven
I was on my way out
(i'm not scared anymore)

All my fuck ups and do wrongs
Will haunt me when I’m gone
They’re keeping me awake

Your arrows are shot into me
And I fall asleep
Hoping the pain will just leave me
Your arrows are shot into me
And I fall asleep
Hoping the pain will just leave me

Notching words like flying knives
And it’s still eating me alive
Anxiety
And it takes hold
Can't shake the feeling from my mind
A sharp pain running down my spine
I lie awake every night
Just fall asleep you'll be alright

I close my eyes
And see my whole life
Flash before me
As if I'm gonna die

Your arrows are shot into me
And I fall asleep
Hoping the pain will just leave me
Your arrows are shot into me
And I fall asleep
Hoping the pain will just leave me be
Your arrows are shot into me (I couldn't describe if I tried)
Your arrows are shot into me (the pain that I felt)
