Arrow Lyrics

The clock is ticking on the table in my room
Funny how the time just slips away
An ordinary simple man
Who's lost a little piece of something
Hold my breath and close my eyes
Say a little prayer
Here we go again hello
I didn't see the end and so the story goes
How can I be cool?
I always play the fool
I need a shot of love
Look an arrow through the heart
My mind is open to the page of yesterday
Isn't it a crime how love can go
I always knew there would come a day
When silence played the king of pain
So I close my eyes and hold my breath
And contemplate a change
Here we go again hello
I didn't see the end and so the story goes
How can I be cool?
I always play the fool
I need a shot of love
Like an arrow through the heart
I have my faith in life
I know the truth inside
This time I swear it's gonna be better

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
