The Archer lyrics

• Combat, I'm ready for combat
  I say I don't want that, but what if I do?
  'Cause cruelty wins in the movies
  I've got a hundred thrown-out speeches I almost said to you

  Easy they come, easy they go
  I jump from the train, I ride off alone
  I never grew up, it's getting so old
  Help me hold on to you

  I've been the archer, I've been the prey
  Who could ever leave me, darling
  But who could stay?

  Dark side, I search for your dark side
  But what if I'm alright, right, right, right here?
  And I cut off my nose just to spite my face
  Then I hate my reflection for years and years

  I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost
  The room is on fire, invisible smoke
  And all of my heroes die all alone
  Help me hold on to you

  I've been the archer, I've been the prey
  Screaming, who could ever leave me, darling
  But who could stay?
  (I see right through me, I see right through me)

  'Cause they see right through me
  They see right through me
  They see right through
  Can you see right through me?
  They see right through
  They see right through me
  I see right through me
  I see right through me

  All the king's horses, all the king's men
  Couldn't put me together again
  'Cause all of my enemies started out friends
  Help me hold on to you

  I've been the archer, I've been the prey
  Who could ever leave me, darling
  But who could stay?
  (I see right through me, I see right through me)
  Who could stay?
  Who could stay?
  Who could stay?
  You could stay
  You could stay

  Combat, I'm ready for combat
