Trail Horse

as I watch the water crawl

and circle ‘round the drain

I think about my life

and how it feels the same

am I always gonna be

an enemy of mine?

maybe it’s a curse

maybe i’m not meant for this life

or maybe i’m just not a trail horse

some days I don’t know if i’m a follower of nothing

and every time I let someone in the saddle

they keep pulling on the reigns to keep me from running

but I feel like a wild horse

on the beach

with a silver mane

in the golden heat

l gotta say that underneath

I got so much wild in me

it’s the feeling that you give

when you stare into my eyes

‘cause I can tell you’re fearless

and I can tell you’ve cried

over all your lost intentions

quietly deprived

but maybe independence

is all you ever need in this life

and maybe i’m just not a trail horse

some days I don’t know if i’m a follower of nothing

and every time I let someone in the saddle

they keep pulling on the reigns to keep me from running

but I feel like a wild horse

on the beach

with a silver mane

in the golden heat

l gotta say that underneath

I got so much wild in me
