I would say this song is slightly inspired by the dark and twisted movie by Lars von Trier ("Antichrist"). I have to admit, I didn't like the movie very much, though at the same time wasn't expecting to. Disturbing and a bit too dark for my taste. At times the cinematography was very beautiful and captivating and this is where the inspiration for this song came about.
The movie also inspired a second piece of poetry called "Paradox" which I will later use in a different song, so would not say I "tormented" myself for nothing. Even so, if you decide to watch the movie, brace yourself because it invades you in more ways than one - not to mention being sexually provocative and even pornographic at times.
The idea of a love affair, eden gone wrong - that is where "Shackles and Arrows" was born.

Kimmo's songs are more or less the map of his life, though exceptions do occur. He writes songs about everything that touches him and the style depends on the mood his in.
