Arrow
Beast Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

He's got an eye on you
And a weapon, too
He's got an eye on you
He's got a weapon, too
I'd like to warn you
But I've got to warn you
They are watching you
Just like my hands do
He's going to hunt; he's going to trap
You are the target he will pursue
Allow me, allow me
To be your muse, your rest
'Til the end of the day
While they target your chest
They've got an eye you
They've got their weapons, too
I'd like to arm you
But I can't disarm you
They're going to catch you
Just like the others
They're going to trap; they're going to kill the young lovers
Allow me, allow me
To be your muse, your rest
'Til the end of the day
When they make you confess
He's got his mind on you
And information, too
He's got his mind on you
And information, too
He'd like to harm you
Get his army on you
He gets inside of you
Just like my voodoo
He's going to analyze and criticize your point of view
So tell me you, tell me
Which part of war is best?
I heard you say
Your heart was pounding in your chest
He's got his mind on you
And information, too
I tried to warn you
But I couldn't get through
They're coming for you
They won't forgive you
They're going to wipe you clean, erase the tattoo
So tell me, you tell me
Which part of war is best?
I heard you say
Your heart was pounding in your chest




I put a spell on you
And shot an arrow, too

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Arrow" by BEAST suggest a sense of urgency and danger through the use of repeated phrases and strong imagery. The song appears to be telling a story of someone who is being targeted by an individual or group of people trying to harm them, and the singer is trying to offer help and guidance. The repetition of "He's got an eye on you / And a weapon, too," emphasizes the danger the subject is in, while the line "I'd like to arm you / But I can't disarm you" hints at the singer's own powerlessness to stop the threat. The image of someone hunting their prey is further reinforced with the lines "He's going to hunt; he's going to trap / You are the target he will pursue."
