Watch it separate in two

Whatever the day wants it to

Findin' out that the worst is true

Findin' out that it can escape you



Slings and arrows completes the score

Always leavin', wantin' more

And I try to throw it away



Silver spikes and mace

Displayed in your eyes

Fearlessness, cannot fathom

What's on your mind?



Been there, no luck at all

Nothin' left to lose

Been there, no luck at all

Nothin' left to lose

I've been there



'Danger', 'Slow' sign ahead

Exhaust fumes, Thin Lizzy instead

Left all pressin' cares all along the road

Fifteen keys, but where do they go?



Slings and arrows completes the score

Always leavin', wantin' more

And I try to throw it away



Strings that pull, strings that bend

This song and dance never ends
