Paroles de Bows & Arrows

I saw your face
Whiter than purity
Then I saw savages
Standing before me
Bows and arrows
Tipped with poison
Make tenderness please
Stand by my pillow

I see evil
Every time I dream
I see Earth's poison
I hear violence sing
Even your touch
Once so pure
Becomes fates cold hand
On my locked door

Won't you send those angels to watch over me?

I can't catch the bow
That this planet has thrown
I can't catch this bow
On my own
In come the arrows
Like a needle
Won't you send those angels to watch over me?
