“Arrows” is Concrete and Gold seventh track. As Dave Grohl said:
It happened at the perfect time. I was inspired by what was going on with our country—politically, personally, as a father, an American and a musician. There was a lot to write about.
So, the song could talk about a refugee, as she “...
[Verse 1]
She was a friend of mine, alone on a dead end street
Dancin' through life on the front lines

Arrows in her eyes, tears in her arteries

Fire away, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
