All Them Horses

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Window seat in a nineties plane See the rivers meet and spread like veins 'Nother airport lounge, 'nother time zone change Gonna dance around, sing about my pain Okay, it pays See the dried flood lines on the neighbors' porches Do you remember cryin' for all them horses? They did not look scared at all, they did not look scared They did not look scared at all [Verse 2] So tell me when it feels you cannot escape me Just yell like Dad would yell at all thе noise I'm makin' I'm just happy you still call, I'm just happyI'm just happy you still call City kid bought the farm, he's a rеal nice guy Left a lifetime invitation for my friends and I Couldn't make it back even if I tried Oh, some things live forever, even when they die Oh, my, my, my, my, my, my, my [Chorus] Know I wanna beat it, wanna beat it bad Oh, everyone looks happy in a photograph I've crossed the county line, I cannot go back I'm always on my own Couldn't make it home 'cause of all that rain Oh, run of bad luck in a nowhere state I'm high above us now in a big jet plane I'm always on my own [Post-Chorus] I'm always on my own Oh Woah Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh [Verse 3] I ain't planned it, the plane, the plane just landed out here Rubbed my eyes on 89, double yellow, murdered deerYou can vanish, yes, love, you can try to disappear A thousand eyes on a dirt roadStrike a light, let it burn slow Maybe I'm manic again, but I think this time I'm out for good I'm a sidewalk preacher with a record deal I'm the weight of new sneakers on some dead wood This ain't mine anymore, I made too much goddamn noise Done starin' at the void, spin castin' with the boys [Chorus] Know I wanna beat it, wanna beat it bad Oh, everyone looks happy in a photograph I've crossed the county line, I cannot go backI'm always on my own Couldn't make it home 'cause of all that rain Oh, run of bad luck in a nowhere state I'm high above us now in a big jet plane I'm always on my own [Post-Chorus] I'm always on my own [Outro] See the dried flood lines on the neighbors' porches Do you remember cryin' for all them horses? They did not look scared at all, they did not look scared They did not look scared at all
