Foo Fighters - Arrows Lyrics
She was a friend of mine
Alone on a dead end street
Dancing through life
On the front lines
Ends, they don't always meet
Years passed her by
Waiting to rise
She had arrows in her eyes
Fear where her heart should be
War in her mind
Arrows in her eyes
Fear where her heart should be
Shame in her cries
Arrows in her eyes
Tears in her arteries
War in her mind
Shame as she cries
Fire away
Under a silent light
Queen Gemini
The world in her sights
I want a new life
Forming inside of me
Blessed and born
Into this fire
You had arrows in your eyes
Fear where your heart should be
War in your mind
Fear where your heart should be
War in your mind
Shame in your cries
Arrows in your eyes
Tears in your arteries
War in your mind
Shame as you cry
Fire away
Arrows in her eyes
Fear where her heart should be
War in her mind
Shame in her cries
Arrows in her eyes
Tears in her arteries
War in her mind
Shame as she cries
Fire away

Foo Fighters Arrows Comments
I just realized the album cover is two FF's while one of them is upside down and facing the other way.
A beautiful song about his wife, Jordyn <3
Best song on album.
Best song on the album I think.
Today I dedicated my day to listening to Foo Fighters. ❤❤❤
This song followed by Dirty Water on the album is pure rock Bliss. Easily my favorite thing to listen to in years.
I downlo... I buy this fu*** album right now !!
this whole album is awesome. gives me a pink floyd vibe
Make a music video for this please please please please
I really love Foo Fighters!
I do archery so when ever I’m at a tournament I play this song in my head
God this song gives me goosebumps
This is the best song
Someone told me this song is about hilliary Clinton, does anyone know if that's true? If so this isn't only a great song but also hilarious
Can someone explain what this song is about? Thanks
Does anyone know the meaning behind the song?
I can't believe that they are having a concert on my birthday April 25th but I'm going to turn 12 so I can't go😣😣😣 foo fighters is one of my favorite bands and nirvana
Just saw them last night in Austin, it was the best rock and roll concert I’ve ever been to!!!
Awesome song well done foo fighters
And the Foo Fighters never disappoint
Wow this New Foo Fighters Music is awesome
Best song nasty love song. Black widow and the brave.
Deep cut.

fave song so awesome (⌐▀͡ ̯ʖ▀), Dave Grohl was a good drummer, but he's an even better singer
best part 1:04
0:00 -> 4:26 best part :)
im more of an dirty water guy
For those who disliked this song I'll see you in hell with my torture tools, I got a nice electric chair waiting for you.
Teen wolf Alison’s sonh
This song is fantastic. Nearly perfect. Start to finish, one of the best songs I've heard in a long time.
Not a big Foo Fighters fan, like a few of their songs, but I LOVE this song.
Foo Fighters went to Greg Kurstin for the producer of this album. I still think they should of went to Bob Rock or Butch Vig
I will like this song in 2018
Artwork. Beautiful song .
the first song i picked to make single... pointed out everling as a stand out track on color and the shape so i know single tracks... the sophisticated evolution of dave grohls music talent with good fighters is significant with this album. there's the drums he is known for and always new gutsy riffs... never thought is see the same kid from Richmond that broke dowm the set in in bloom progress here... thanks and who are some of the backing vocals talent...
this album is shocking compared to wasting light
Foo for rock hall of fame
I wish I didn't relate to this song as much as I do
the lead singer in this band get on my nerves for some reason. Don't know why. He just comes over like a teenager still in middle age.
This sounds so mysthic and spiritual
baby/ya'll / whoever/ someone find me a babysitter!!! jk , kind of.... I listen to this song, I'm a student for full time bachelors in pysch, no one is approved for the day care. but this song is about me. full time mom, online student, keep up with their school schedules, and my schedule as well. and the father needs to be dead as opposed to viable for attention.
This is becoming my favorite song on the album.
I never was a fan of foo fighters, there old stuf is kind of sloppy in my opinion. But I'm always open to new good stuff, and i wouldn't be surprised if this was nominated album of the year.
The Cult :) kinda , right lol
This one belongs on everyone's Foo playlist! :D
Dave Grohl said this song was about Hillary Clinton. Like him even more now.
After going back and reading the lyrics, I could see that. Not flattering, by any means! lol Thumbs up, Dave.
anyone else get the vibe that this is about his wife, Jordyn? Easily my favorite song off the new album. Saw them a few days ago. They had just come off a week long break so they blessed us with a 3 hour show :)
Love this song!!!! ~~~ It makes me remember The Women’s March back in January, the day after Dumpf was sworn in.
This album sounds like shit. Fuck the new Foo's. Prophets of Rage are better than this crap.
Mantra evolves with words....great tune/vibe
I discovered this song at the movies
Fucking amazing and souldripping!!
What a song. This and Zero Hour are my faves on the record. The record is fucking great too.
2:10 I should have known. Anyone?
There is something haunting about this song that just hits the core... not the lyrics per se, the song just speaks in an ethereal voice...
Dramatic, Intense. Bold...no creamer or sugar needed...Epic FOO!
This is such a Foo Fighters song
3:20 now that is sexy
Holy fuckballs, this is good. I got the album on vinyl and played this song back just the *teensiest* bit slower than the CD. Wow. Totally hit the sweet spot of auditory bliss.
evanisovich yeah my dude bought me the vinyl and a record player for my bday in sept and its just pure bliss!!
This song gets better every time I listen to it. On an album full of great songs, this one really stands out.
Took me quite a few listens to really dig this song. One of if not the best new tune.
Lyrics:
She was a friend of mine
Alone on a dead end street
Dancing through life
On the front lines
She led a quite life
Ends, they don't always meet
Years passed her by
Waiting to rise
She had arrows in her eyes
Fear where her heart should be
War in her mind
Arrows in her eyes
Fear where her heart should be
War in her mind
Shame in her cries
Arrows in her eyes
Tears in her arteries
War in her mind
Shame as she cries
Fire away
Under a silent light
Screaming biology
Queen Gemini
The world in her sights
I want a new life
Forming inside of me
Blessed and born
Into this fire
You had arrows in your eyes
Fear where your heart should be
War in your mind
Arrows in her eyes
Fear where your heart should be
War in your mind
Shame in your cries
Arrows in your eyes
Tears in your arteries
War in your mind
Shame as you cry
Fire away
Arrows in her eyes
Fear where her heart should be
War in her mind
Shame in her cries
Arrows in her eyes
Tears in her arteries
War in her mind
Shame as she cries
Fire away
Thanks a bunch
interesting how "Fear where her heart should be" and "Tears in her arteries" have the same syllable count but the latter is more similar to the other lines in the stanza.
word lengths are strange
Another great foo instant classic
sunsa bitchss
Am I the only one that hears some of Queens Of The Stone Age vibe at the begining??
Yesssssuhhhhhhh. -drools-
Hillary.?
Fave song off the album for sure
This song has me crying on the floor
This album is so good
not sure if 6/8, 10/8 alternating or just 16/8 either way love the off kilter lilt.
sounds like 4/4 to me.
3/4-3/4-2/4 basically what you say!
this song is the love child of In Your Honor and Arlandria
abraham ruiz and one by one imo
My shit
Cameron Deleeuw my shitt what does that mean dumbass
This sounds like something that could be on In Your Honor (because of the mixing).
Hasta ahorita todo bien con el album... aunque no entiendo por que tiene dislikes..??
Anyone getting that Arlandria vibe from Wasting Light?
I personally hear a little bit of almost Cheer Up Boys
in the pre chorus? also, how did you feel about Dan stepping down? ;)
ya around 1:01 and also its kinda played in the same key so I get that feeling
Jackson Geary Some of the unison bends on the notes are a bit similar.
I have always feel this song like an Arlandria's & Outside's brother.
So glad they're writing human songs instead of geographical songs. Not that SH was necessarily bad, but it lacked the emotion and authenticity that makes them my favorite band. This album is epic.
Eli Kirk Completely agree. SH scared me. I was afraid they were ju s t trying to throw songs out
Bruh. SH is the first album I learned by heart. _Outside_ makes me cry. It made them my favorite band.
Sonic highways was pretty lame, except for feast and the famine which is a banger
Ok I can’t take you seriously if you use the word “banger.”
cool man
This whole album has a different feel but still FF great.
Feels like this piece was written for me. 🎶
IM OBSESSED WITH THIS ALBUM OMG IM DYING 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Oh my god! You're dying!? Get to a hospital!
oh my god same
It's pretty damn amazing..
Best song off the new album !!!
Winner. Easily my favorite. Up at 330am on my day off because I needed to hear it. It's so validating and heart wrenching. Thanks Dave. I love you guys!
kristi ayers awesome..Yea great song
Let's see their she is a killer on the road hash hit jellyfish
honestly one of the best songs on the album. cant wait to see them in february!!!!
Not bad.
This is some terrible Music !
JJ Slicker are u being serious or are you just a fucking spastic?
Guys he probably listens to crappy rap music or Megadeth
Who called the blonde to the party lol jk
L҉i҉n҉k҉T҉o҉D҉e҉s҉t҉i҉n҉y҉ true
You might want to try learning how to properly construct a sentence before insulting something, sweetheart. Just a suggestion
Guess I'm in the minority here. Not really overly impressed with anything off this cd. Don't like the overproducced sound or the burried vocals. Maybe after a few listens. But not a good sign when I'm skipping songs b4 they are done bcuz I'm bored.
I don't mind that it's an album of songs that seem so different from each other. A little bit of everything for everyone, seeing what works. Who knows, maybe this album could be looking for what direction to take next.
I feel that has less to do with the production (While I agree, the production here is absolutely suffocating the music), I think they reason we are both bored, is that these song are on average 3 minutes TOO LONG. Especially on tracks like 'The sky is a neighborhood' where they sing the chorus no less than 7 times, or 'Dirty Water', where it seems like they recorded two completely different version of the song, and decided to use them both. Regardless, Either someone new is writing the lyrics for these songs, or Dave is really just running out of things to say, which is understandable after writing songs for so long. It doesn't help that lyrical content has never really been an FF strong point.
I mean..... if it IS overproduced, you shouldn't be surprised. It WAS a pop producer that mixed the album after all. Same with the new QOTSA album
U couldn't be more right, I love the Foo fighters so when I heard that they made a new album I had it pre-ordered...I was so disappointed, I liked run and the sky is a neighborhood but that was it for me
Me too, especially with all the back up vocals. It gets a little busy and sounds like a studio made it more than a band.
Fuk yee
FIIIIIRRRSSSTTTT!!!!!!! NICCCCCE!!!!
Nate Sotello what?
Nate Sotello not even close to first there are comments 16 hours ago
Best song on the album
they are all great.great album
Agreed. This song is the essence of FF their progressive sound.
This Song's got so much stank on it, It's unreal.
And here's a song for the old fans.
WildSky it’s a new song?
From a brand new album :D
Well, It was brand new last year jaja
One of the best songs on this album by far.
Jesse Cole thinking the same the same things thanks for saving me from wasting my time correcting these people
Jesse Cole Was thinking the same, it doesn’t even match with Doll or February star. smh
Thats damn good
Easily my favorite song on the new record
Arrows in her eyes, fear where her heart should be, war in her mind, shame in her cries
arrows in her eyes, tears in her arteries war in her mind, shame as ahe cries.
Shady Canadians FIRE AWAYYYYY
Diego Cuber It’s both.
Shady Canadians jjj
Shady Canadians lko
Shady Canadians you spelled she wrong
Fav song off the new album!
Wooo I'm second to comment this song is so sick!!!!
Gutair Guy uh no you're not.you're lame.
Nate Sotello jeeze i was joking you try to joke around and someone ruins your day
Nate Sotello and yes I am second
Whoohoo! More new Foo! Can't wait till October 23rd! Fast approaching! Also first! Bam!
Harry Pittman they play forever!! They rock out from start to finish until you get tired! You'll not be disappointed
I think I literally know every word to every foo song, even the B sides and every beat and chord, I'm so pumped, been waiting all my life for it! I want to die saying I've seen everlong played live by Dave Ghrol! I want to take a sign asking them to play either White Limo or stacked actors, two of my fav heavy songs, pretty underrated so I doubt it'd be on their setlist.
Harry Pittman Yeah! Stacked Actors is a great one! The way they did at least one, maybe two shows I saw is that would go crazy, then do like an acoustic set, then go hard again. They had a stage with a walk out to the center with another stage. And they play forever! I always want them to play wattershed, alone + easy target, in your honor, or x static. They'll surprise you and pull some deep deep tracks
Sounds like one of the best experiences possible! I love the quieter simple stuff but the loud killer tracks are just made for the stage. This album has a good mix of songs that are both or that lean either way, and I know they'll play most of these songs and most of the greatest hits plus a couple more but there's like over 100 songs to play, I know it'll be one of the greatest days of my life.
Hehehe pranked
