Lyrics
On doomsday you may just see me
Expressing a presence on a significant day of reckoning
Sheltered under the marquee
Finding refuge under a protective structure
We'll walk back our promise
Retracting a commitment or assurance
On my knees
In a submissive position, possibly expressing regret
And tarnish the twinkling
Tainting the brightness or optimism
Well then I'm going to Dree
Moving towards a place called Dree
Where every leaf on every tree
Expecting nature to scorn or ridicule endlessly
Will mock me for nothing
Feeling ridiculed without reason
Eternally
Experiencing perpetual mockery or disdain
Find reasons eternally
Searching for eternal justifications
Broken arrow, saw you out the back, oh
Observing a symbolic broken arrow, encountering challenges
On a winters beach, drag me out to sea
Being dragged into an uncertain or difficult situation
'Cause you flew too far oh, for a broken arrow
Being too distant or unreachable, akin to a broken arrow
Be the wreck of me, is that your fantasy?
Speculating if being a wreck is someone's desire or vision
Fledglings that I couldn't save
Regret for not being able to rescue fledglings
Would probably be dead now anyway
Speculating that the rescued might not have survived anyway
I'm sorry that nothing could change your fate
Expressing remorse for an unalterable destiny
Cascadia, it's in her hands
Referencing Cascadia, possibly a symbolic entity with influence
My future in her hands
Placing one's future in the hands of Cascadia
Broken arrow, saw you out the back, oh
Reiterating the presence of a broken arrow and its impact
Bleeding on the shells, sick from weaving spells
Experiencing pain and vulnerability, possibly due to enchantments
But if you don't pull through, I swear I'll avenge you
Making a commitment to avenge if the situation doesn't improve
Automatically, 'til the end of me
Promising automatic dedication until the end
Broken arrow, saw you out the back, oh
Revisiting the broken arrow scenario and its consequences
On a winters beach, drag me out to sea
Re-experiencing being dragged into a challenging situation
'Cause you flew too far oh, for a broken arrow
Reflecting on the distance traveled by the broken arrow
Be the wreck of me, is that your fantasy?
Questioning if being a wreck is a desired outcome
