Darkhorse

Run, little sister, run so fast

I see he's gainin' on you

Take a breath and make it last

The dark water horizon

Smile like you mean it

And just cast the light of Hell right out of here

No one else can see him

It's the shape that makes you fall on fallow ground

So no more layin' down

And no more, no more, no, no more draggin' out

It's the darkhorse you give legs to

No one else can ride

In the wake of strange beginnings

We can still stand high

Sing this song, a verse unhinged

Passed down from our mother

Take a breath and make it count

And learn to sing another

Try 'cause we need to and just

Laugh the life of Hell right out of you

No one else can see him

The shape that makes you fall on fallow ground

So let your heart die

In the springtime that surrounds you

It's the darkhorse we give legs to

No one else can ride

In the wake of strange beginnings

We can still stand high

You and I, you and I

You and I, you and I

It's the darkhorse we give legs to

That I am proud to ride

In the wake of weak beginnings

We can still stand high

You and I lie

Yes, you and I

You and I, you and I

Still try
