Bows & Arrows Lyrics - Pj Harvey

I saw your face 

Whiter the purity 

Then I saw savages 

Standing before me 

Bows and arrows 

Tipped with poison 

Make tenderness please 

Stand by my pillow 

I see evil 

Everytime I dream 

I see earth's poison 

I hear violence sing 

Even your touch 

Once so pure 

Comes fates cold hand 

On my locked door 

Won't you send those angels to watch over me? 

I can't catch the bow 

That this planet has thrown 

I can't catch this bow 

On my own 

In come the arrows 

Like a needle 

You pierce my heart 

And I taste poison 

You pierce my soul 

With bows and arrows 

Won't you send those angels to watch over me?
