[Verse 1]

Romanticise the view of a slow, descending ghost town

I keep my aim true but the wind is always out

Everything is good news and a chorus-line sound

The story’s in my head, but I’ll vocalise it now

And you’ll hear me saying


[Chorus]

Catch the arrowhead as it leaves my draw

The only shot to tell you what I’ve said

Think poetic elegies I’ve read

Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh

What an unknown pain that I’d do this for

But honestly, what good is leaving it?

How could I live with crushing regret?

Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh


[Post-Chorus]

(Can’t catch the arrowhead)

(Can’t catch the arrowhead)

(Can’t catch the arrowhead)


[Verse 2]

I’ll call it where we arе, don’t know long this could go for

I catch myself on fire just to rise up from thе floor

Oh, let me stay with you, all I know of this is I’m sure

You linger with the view, and your burning light grows more

And now I’m saying


[Chorus]

Catch the arrowhead as it leaves my draw

The only shot to tell you what I’ve said

Think poetic elegies I’ve read

Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh

What an unknown pain that I’d do this for

But honestly, what good is leaving it?

How could I live with crushing regret?

Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh


[Bridge]

Let fly the arrow to meet you

In truth, I’m dying to see you

Is my fletching guiding me way off course?

Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh

Pick up the pen, I can’t have it

Can’t write the story if you’re not in it

Keep me here or leave me lost


[Chorus]

Catch the arrowhead as it leaves my draw

The only shot to tell you what I’ve said

Think poetic elegies I’ve read

Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh

What an unknown pain that I’d do this for

But honestly, what good is leaving it?

How could I live with crushing regret?

Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh


[Outro]

(Can’t catch the arrowhead)

(Can’t catch the arrowhead)

(Can’t catch the arrowhead)

(Can’t catch the arrowhead)

(Can’t catch the arrowhead)

(Can’t catch the arrowhead)
