Hurray for the Riff Raff's "PIERCED ARROWS," from the album 'LIFE ON EARTH,' out now on Nonesuch Records: [ Ссылка ]

"We took inspiration from arthouse cinema from the turn of the millennium," says director Lucia Honey. "'Run Lola Run,' 'Requiem for a Dream,' 'My Own Private Idaho.' We wanted “Pierced Arrows” to have a gritty narrative feel but that still indulged in a surrealist aesthetic.

"The song lends itself to a narrative climax. The first time I heard it, I felt like I was in the middle of a brewing storm. I couldn’t escape the reference to Hurricane Ida, which hit Southern Louisiana hard in late August. This blended well with themes from Alynda’s song which is largely about running from a past that always catches up to you. Hence physical running in industrial landscapes. Metal. Trainyards. Escapism. Cold anxiety. Being stuck in a trauma loop."

PIERCED ARROWS

Trying to avoid running into my ex on Broadway.
No one recognizes me anymore, girl I'm lonely.
Vampires and thieves, someone will bleed,
will it be me?
Rich kids who wanted everything,
holding the bow while my ears ring.

I keep on running for the blue,
I duck my head and travel through.

Pierced Arrows from the sky,
fall through me everytime.
Hey, that's no way to die,
can't hide from turpentine.

Pierced Arrows from the sky,
can chase me down to size.
I'm not afraid to cry,
can't hide from turpentine.

This was the place that fell apart,
you were the one to break it. I don't believe in anything,
this whole fucking world is changing.

I keep on running for the blue,
I duck my head and travel through.
