The Archer Songtext
von Adam Melchor

Wasted on the floor again
And no one seems to mind
I can go back out and that would
Take up too much time
I′m still busy callin' out your name
Wide eyed and face down on the pine

And how I miss the colors of the leaves
That grow in spring
And how you used to dance upon the rain
And I would sing
How I′d give most anything to watch you
Twirl around for one more time

I need more time
I need more time


This is how you turned me
To the archer from the arched
This is where you turned me
To the marksman from the marked
This is how I learnt how to take
The arrows in my back
And shoot them at the stars

But how they all just circle back
And meet me at the start
And how they hit me hard enough
To question who you are
And how you got so close to me
And how you got so far

I need more time
I need more time
I need more time
I need more time

The shrapnel of my faith in you
Is cutting through my skin
And somewhere in the mess around
My body it begins
And I don't see an end to this
So I'll enjoy the fire


I need more time
I need more time
I need more time
I need more time
