about

"Arrows. It was only fitting that I named the album after the first track. The reason I recorded this EP directly relates to the major content of this song. I hate the Arrows. I hate that I'm someone that follows all the rules - I hate that I am afraid to do what I want because everyone tells me I shouldn't do it. It's about time to make objections. It's about time to break some rules, take leaps of faith, and do what I want."

lyrics

There are arrows painted on the street and above each lane,
Telling me that I can only go a certain way.
My turn signal flashes even though I’m the only one at the light,
And I wonder where I’d go if I went left, when all signs point right.

And all the arrows
Of the intersection
I make no
I make no objection
‘Cause I follow
I always follow directions

I follow the car in front and I never defy the boss,
‘Cause I don’t want to be alone and I’m scared of getting lost.
I’ll sit down and listen, make do with what I’m given,
But I don’t want to grow old, always having done as I’m told.
I stay on my side, where I know that I am safe,
But I’m dying for a turn to misbehave.
(oh, oh, oh, oh)

And all the arrows
Of the intersection
I make no
I make no objection
‘Cause I follow
I always follow directions

I settle for less, blindly follow the GPS,
The voice, and the screen, that dictate where I am going.

And all the arrows
Of the intersection
I make no objections, I always follow directions.
I hate the arrows
Of the intersection
‘Bout time to make objections,
I’m sick of following directions.
I hate the arrows, I hate the arrows.
(I hate ‘em I hate ‘em)
I hate the arrows, I hate the arrows.
I hate the arrows, I hate the arrows.
