Composition
Like the previous "Jar of Hearts" single, "Arms" was built around a melodic piano. Although the song "wraps a bit less" than Perri's main song, the song still contains "drunk" emotions that usually refer to Perri's music style. The song started as a slow love song and deviated into an up-tempo song as kick-drums entered the song midway. Lyrics, Perri started the song happily, sang "I never thought you would be the person holding my heart/you came and you dropped me from the beginning." More into the song, Perri begins to question the relationship, finally finding comfort as she ends the song repeating the hook. The "Arms" evolved from an eloquent ballad to a good melodic love song, combining a tympanic drum.
Perri describes the song in depth, stating "'Weapons' is about the battle between your heart and your mind.Your heart wants to be loved but your head always tells you the reason for not being with him, or how you do not deserve love.This is about the struggle and finally giving up when You are wrapped in their arms, then you get it, then you feel loved and love wins.

As Perri continues to dream, she emerges from the water into the night storm and is pulled onto a boat by two unknown people who start playing musical instruments to knock the song. When Perri appeared on the boat, a group of black balloons wrapped around black bands around Perri's arm, and took her to the sky above London and then on an open field.
