Live Like Horses

I can't control this flesh and blood That's wrapped around my bones It moves beneath me like a river Into the great unknown I stepped onto the moving stairs Before I could tie my shoes Pried a harp out the fingers of a renegade Who lived and died the blues And his promise made was never clear It just carved itself in me All I saw was frost inside my head On the night he said to me Someday we'll live like horses Free rein from your old iron fences There's more ways than one to regain your senses Break out the stalls and we'll live like horses We're the victims of the heartbreak That kept us short of breath Trapped above these bloodless streets Without a safety net I stood in line to join the trial One more customer of fate Claimed a spoke in the wheel of the wagon train On the road to the golden gate On the flat cracked desert I jumped ship It just made sense to me I've spent too long in the belly of the beast And now I shall be free Someday we'll live like horses Free rein from your old iron fences There's more ways than one to regain your senses Break out the stalls and we'll live like horses Someday Free rein from your old iron fences There's more ways than one to regain your senses Break out the stalls and we'll live like horses
