"Broken Arrow"是由Lori McKenna和Dan Baird共同創作的一首歌曲。以下是這首歌的歌詞:
Verse 1:
I left my heart up on the hill
And now it's broken arrows and a whole lot of pain
And I don't know what to do
But I know it's time to come down
Chorus:
It's a broken arrow, a love gone bad
A pain that's hard to swallow, it's a shot you can't un-take
And I don't know where to turn
But I know I'm not alone in this
Verse 2:
I've been drinking whiskey and I've been crying all night
Trying to make sense of all the things that don't quite right
I shoulda listened to my gut
Shoulda know there was trouble just beneath the surface
Chorus:
It's a broken arrow, a love gone bad
A pain that's hard to swallow, it's a shot you can't un-take
And I don't know where to turn
But I know I'm not alone in this
Bridge:
And the stars are out tonight
And they're shining down on me
And I feel like I could run forever
But I don't know where to go
Chorus:
It's a broken arrow, but my heart still beats
A pain that cuts me deep but I'll learn to take the kicks
And when the morning comes
I'll be on my way, broken and whole again
Outro:
So it's a broken arrow, yeah that's alright with me
I'll pick myself up, dust myself off, and I'll keep on trying
Cause I don't know what else to do
But keep moving on and on and on...
這是一首關於失戀的歌曲,表達了對於失去愛情的痛苦和無助。歌詞中提到了離開山頂的心,喝著威士忌哭泣,嘗試著理解一切都不對勁,應該聽從自己的直覺,知道有問題存在表面之下。歌曲還表達了面對愛情的失敗,自己並不孤單,即使傷痛深刻,也會繼續前行。
