Broken Arrow Lyrics

You called up yesterday with that same old song,
you know that pointless one a broken record on and on and on,
and then you say have I got the skills,
to impress you enough to have me spend the night with you,

I saw you today my lungs in your hands,
well squeeze them tightly now cause I don't need the air,
and then you said "I don't think you understand, it was just one night of our lives can't we just be friends?'

And you say right now you can't help how you feel,
well I'm the same "right now" but no one should ever feel like,
a broken arrow, a burnt out flame,
yeah I'm the same "right now" and you're the one that I have to blame,

So can I ask now what is it you really think?
and what are the motives behind you and your stupid tricks,
the game is over leave me alone,
until we meet again in a life where you are over thrown,

So you say right now you can't help how you feel,
well I'm the same "right now" but no one should ever feel like,
a broken arrow, a burnt out flame,
yeah I'm the same "right now" and you're the one that I have to blame,

Cross Your Heat and Hope to Die

You called up yesterday with that same old song,
you know that pointless one a broken record on and on and on,
and then you say have I got the skills,
to impress you enough to have me spend the night with you,

I saw you today my lungs in your hands,
well squeeze them tightly now cause I don't need the air,
and then you said "I don't think you understand, it was just one night of our lives can't we just be friends?'

And you say right now you can't help how you feel,
well I'm the same "right now" but no one should ever feel like,
a broken arrow, a burnt out flame,
yeah I'm the same "right now" and you're the one that I have to blame,

So can I ask now what is it you really think?
and what are the motives behind you and your stupid tricks,
the game is over leave me alone,
until we meet again in a life where you are over thrown,

So you say right now you can't help how you feel,
well I'm the same "right now" but no one should ever feel like,
a broken arrow, a burnt out flame,
yeah I'm the same "right now" and you're the one that I have to blame,

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.
