"Poison Arrow" is written by Allison Russell and Jeremy Lindsay aka JT Nero. Going back to Montreal even for short visits was always fraught for me. My history there was too present and potent and poisonous. Something changed after I had my daughter. Being able to love her and protect her, and mother her, and give her a truly great, loving father - has been the best antidote. The beauty of my city shines for me again. - A Follow Allison Russell: Instagram: https://found.ee/AllisonRussellInstagram Twitter: https://found.ee/AllisonRussellTwitter Facebook: https://found.ee/AllisonRussellFacebook Lyrics: Poison arrow be kind to me and I’ll be kind to you It’s not just your poison, it’s the bow, the string Shaft and feather too The rush of the wind The blue sky above The rain that soaked the ground To give the oleander love Go in peace be not afraid Roll em easy, Namaste All you sad and broken travelers, come on Poison arrow broke in my chest But I’m In my finery At Le Divan on Boulevard St. Laurent Sipping dry sherry The sun is bleeding slow She dies in pink and blue Etta’s on the radio Singing trust in me in all you do Go in peace be not afraid Roll em easy namaste All you sad and broken travelers, come on Je te souhaîte la paix Je te souhaîte l’acceptance Je te souhaîte une deuxième chance Et le coeur, le coeur d’un enfant Routier Routier Chanter!
