Arc To Archtilles Lyrics
The archers come to the edge of ferns The wind it floats so cold with words You're in and out of sleep tonight And it let you to the shed to hide Breathing in the dark They're finding where you are If you are, then you know the phone's tapped The last of the maps are breaking codes You've seen the night thieves like sharpened knife bleeds through The moon shows, that you're in reverse The moon shows, that you're in reverse Breathing in the dark They're finding where you are
Song Description: 'This song is about a dream I had. I was standing in a forest, the trees were blowing from a strong wind. I felt a little eerie, like I wasn't alone. As I traveled through the woods, I came to a shed that had a single flickering yellow light on the outside. I went nervously into the shed to find it completely empty except for a single photograph on the ground. I picked it up to look and I saw that it was a picture taken from above me just a few minutes prior when I was standing in the windy forest. The terrifying sight though was that in the shrubs and ferns around me were hundreds of archers dressed in gold armor poised with arrows drawn back. I couldn't see them when I was out there, only when I saw the picture taken from above. And one archer in particular had a golden arrow just a few inches from my head. I knew they were out there and they knew where I was. Luckily the shed was dark and I could hide and wait breathing in nervous anxiety for the coming of the golden archers.' - Falling Up
