Crisis
Arrow Haze Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To fill the empty space
The sound of silence grows
My frustration didn't stop
Aaaah how far can we go?
Aaaah how far we can go
It's another faceless leader
Most are judged by what they make
And some by how much they can take
Aaaah Everyday we swallow our pride
Aaaah They left nothing for us to decide
Take the money from the man who casts out on the street
Selling our freedom in exchange for luxury
All you've got to offer are false prophecies
Looking for an answer how to make ends meet
Take the money from the man who casts out on the street
Selling our freedom in exchange for luxury
All you've got to offer are false prophecies
Looking for an answer how to make ends meet
The lyrics of Arrow Haze's song "Crisis" critique the political and economic systems in place that exploit and leave people feeling helpless. The opening lines suggest that there is always another plan being created to fill the empty spaces of silence that suggest something is wrong. The singer expresses frustration with the continuous cycle of this plan, and questions how far it can go.
The next verse criticizes faceless leaders who pretend to be friends but ultimately are just concerned with making money and taking what they can. The chorus expresses how people swallow their pride every day because there seems to be little room for decision making in the current system. The bridge highlights the contrast between those who have everything and those who struggle to make ends meet, often due to the decisions of the former.
The overall message is one of unrest and dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs. It suggests that people are being sold false promises and that the economic system is rigged against the common person. Through the repetitive chorus, the singer emphasizes how helpless people feel as they are powerless to choose their own path due to the conditions created by those in power.

The solo starts from 0.52, sounds similar to the last solo on 'dead memories' by slipknot. Vocals are sick! Keep it up ;)
