Blind Man's Arrow Lyrics
in this lifetime. you can mix knives and paper doves. on the roof top if it craves it's hollowed out. i fell down this daylight. blind man's arrow buried in my loves heart. tape was wound. life ties back drop figures and puppets in scissor hands. on the outside all of these words are falling down. porcelain light a moonless night. in closing. always closing. fortunate day. simple to say. in closing. always closing. the curtain is drawn. the lights go on. in closing. always closing

Appleseed Cast is such a good band. Every song by them is excellent. This song is really nice. I love all their songs.
i want to dance with you.
i think this song could be about suicide and how someone can't cope with his/her everyday feelings and emotions. i dont know, i got the idea of that from when deep elm put it on the "too young to die" sampler which is about teen suicide. maybe they thought it related to it? just a guess.
At the end part, there's another line between "porcelain light a moonless night. in closing. always closing" and "fortunate day. simple to say. in closing. always closing" It's not just a repeat of the line before, but I still can't tell what it says. No matter where I look for the lyrics, I can't find them. Can anyone make it out?
I think the line might be "Fragile frost and blooming stars. In closing, always closing."
Actually, nevermind, the line is "Fragile frost and blue moonshine", I'm relatively sure.
"a curtain falls, the lights go out. the backdrop falls, the lights go out"
is what he sings in a live version. I believe this song relates pagnetry to suicide. or specific plays/stories told on screen stage about suicide. when I say pagnetry, i dont mean it in generality, I think he's relating it specifically.
That line sounds more like "backdrop falls, in blue lights shone" on the album.
