about

When you let a song loose into the world, you wonder where it will end up, who will listen to it and how it will be interpreted. There is a sense of mystery and fear when you release music in the world, much like an arrow shot aimlessly into the heavens. The dream-like sounds of Arrow mixes influences of Crosby, Stills and Nash with Elliot Smith.

lyrics

For, so swiftly it flew, the sight
Could not follow it in its flight.
I breathed a song into the air,
It fell to earth, I knew not where;

For who has sight so keen and strong,
That it can follow the flight of song?
Long, long afterward, in an oak
I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end,
I found again in the heart of a friend.

I shot an arrow into the air,
It fell to earth, I knew not where;
And the song, from beginning to end,
I found again in the heart of a friend.

I shot an arrow into the air,
It fell to earth, I knew not where;
And the song, from beginning to end,
I found again in the heart of a friend.
