Broken Arrows

This time he's gonna wear an iron suitThis time she's gonna fix her heart and make it bullet proofHe says he's gonna take a bite from the forbidden fruitShe says never never bite more than you can chewBut this time he's not gonna be another could've beenThis time she's gonna get real, love the skin she's inShe says a winner never quits, quitters never winShe said this time that she is built to face anythingThis time he's gonna step for who he isThis time she's gonna live to work, she's not working to liveHe says just because you say it's true, it don't mean it isShe says it seems too good to be true, well then it probably isThis time he's hell bent yeah he's heaven boundThis time she's gonna pick herself up no more breaking downHe says he's gonna turn the wheel, turn this shit aroundShe says if he's looking for love then she don't want to be found
When you shoot across the sky like a broken arrowIt's so hard to keep yourself on the straight and narrowWhen you shoot across the sky like a broken arrowYou fall off course,Yeah when you hit the groundIt's hard to get to heaven when you're born hell bound
This time he's gonna make it to the aftermathThis time she's gonna raise her head choose the righteous pathHe says one day we will look back and it will make us laughShe says better to have and not need, than to need and not haveNo matter what the cause it's better to have loved and lostHave you ever met a man who never loved at all?Yeah the higher they are the bigger they fallYou have to choose something cause you can't have it allNo, he's not gonna be the last to the finish lineShe said even losers get lucky sometimesHe says it's gonna get better like a fine wineShe says it's harder to smell the roses when the sun don't shineThis time he's gonna find another wayThis time she's gonna take it to the good ol' days with no airs or gracesOnly warm embraces we're just two little street angels with dirty faces
When you shoot across the sky like a broken arrowIt's so hard to keep yourself on the straight and narrowWhen you shoot across the sky like a broken arrowYou fall off course,Yeah when you hit the groundIt's hard to get to heaven when you're born hell bound

When you shoot across the sky like a broken arrowIt's so hard to keep yourself on the straight and narrowWhen you shoot across the sky like a broken arrowYou fall off course,Yeah when you hit the groundIt's hard to get to heaven when you're born hell bound
