Name: Horses They Run Too
Duration: P00H03M09S

lyrics

Free horses break the walls,
shake off half linnen cloth,
cold metal calls bodily fear,
we're free to ride - now.

Free horses taking off,
we wear furred cloak around
our necks, our backs, our shoulders, arms,
we are archaic sound.
Ah we're free!

Free horses reach the glen,
by now my light got thin,
we scream, we run, we chase, we hunt
around zodiac ring.
Are we free?

As long as we stay true,
as long as our lines too,
as long as silence fills our glass
free horses, they run too.
Are we free?

Are these just cheap versions of excuse?
Are we still deep soil, black earth, white cubes?
Are these just cheap versions of excuse?
Are we still deep soil, black earth, white cubes?
