Horse Girl

Horse girl, riding free
From the whips and chains
You awaken the horse in me
Ride to higher plains

Time burns, she learns
To shy away from human hands
Alive, alive, you will be inside
If she ever passes through your lands

But everything I hoped for, everything I dreamed
Faded out of memory like deleted scenes
Love is like a river pushing through my teeth
Water frozen over, flowing underneath

Horse girl, sunset love
Made in grasses gold
As you ride into the light
You escape the cold

Time burns, she learns
To shy away from human eyes
Alive, alive you will be inside
If she ever passes through your mind

But everything I stood for, slipping from my hands
Monolithic boulders, now just grains of sand
Love is like an arrow falling from the sky
Amorous attack dogs wait behind my eyes

The future is bright
The future is bright
The future is bright
The future is bright
