Towards Horses

If all people were the same, I’d have no one else to play with

When the thunder and the lighting starts

We hurtle headlong with you in tow

…now go and ask the bookies how their gardens grow!

Cos with you, every heavy breath feels like resistance

You reach out your hand, it stops me falling back

And in one embrace, we collapse their systems

I never need to ask you if you feel the same…

Jackpot eyes at the edge of dawn

Free to follow, in your final form

Out in the weather, riding on

Into the coming storm…

Jackpot eyes at the edge of dawn

Free to follow, in your final form

Out in the weather, riding on

We go tearing towards horses

I went to meet you at the bridge

The damp walls held us up

And your heart could hurt a world of stone

Out in the weather, riding on…

An uncanny sense of space

The night air’s got that new rain taste

And the quiet of a loaded gun

The streets are warm and ours to run

We go tearing towards horses

We go tearing towards…

Jackpot eyes at the edge of dawn

Free to follow, in your final form

Out in the weather, riding on

Into the coming storm…

Jackpot eyes at the edge of dawn

Free to follow, in your final form

Out in the weather, riding on

We go tearing towards horses

What if someone else is there

Underneath your eyelids?

A charging horse

Some sleeping saint
