Horses - Headstones

Spent a thousand years medicated

Accepting things you truly hated

You should have anticipated

Dodged the truth instead of made it

How on earth could you escape

Capitulate instead of faced it

No answers cause I didn’t ask

Forget the truth salute the past

Fall into another trap

A busted chain of covered tracks

And raise a cup of broken glass

No one here deserves a pass

When I set those horses free

Climbed out a hole that was six feet deep

I turned around and head for home

Now I’m dying in my dreams

Running down the same old streets

Small price to pay for what it is I know

Almost sure I’m someone else

Pull the plug on mental health

Been defeated and in hell

Watch history repeat itself

I will say it once again

We’re fundamentally broken

Particulars are left unsaid

Everybody’s left to guess

Now we’re hanging by a thread

Turning back or paying debts

Darkness underneath the breath

Backs are up until the death

When I set those horses free

Climbed out a hole that was six feet deep

I turned around and head for home

Waking up in another room

Surprised the darkness again has bloomed

That’s the price I pay for what it is I know

No answers if you never ask

Forget the truth salute the past
