Lyrics: All Them Horses

Window seat in a '90s' plane

See the rivers meet and spread like veins

Another airport lounge, another timezone change

Gonna dance around and sing about my pain

Okay, it pays


See the dried flood lines on the neighbors' porches

Do you remember crying for all them horses?

They did not look scared at all

They did not look scared, they did not look scared at all


So tell me when it feels you cannot escape me

Just yell like dad would yell at all the noise I'm making

I'm just happy you still call

I'm just happy, I'm just happy you still call


City kid bought the farm, he's a real nice guy

Left a lifetime invitation for my friends and I

Couldn't make it back even if I tried

Somethings live forever even when they die

Oh my

My my my my my


You know I wanna beat it, I wanna beat it bad

Oh, everyone looks happy in a photograph

I 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

Oh, I'm high above us now in a big jet plane

I'm always on my own

I'm always on my own


I ain't planned it, the plane

Plane just landed out here

Rubbed my eyes on 89

Double yellow murdered deer

You can vanish, yes love

You can try to disappear

Thousand eyes on a dirt road

Strike 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 is ain't mine anymore

I made too much goddamn noise

Done staring at the void

I'm spin-castin' with the boys


You know I wanna beat it, I wanna beat it bad

Oh, everyone looks happy in a photograph

I crossed the county line, and I cannot go back

I'm always on my own

Couldn't make it home 'cause of all that rain

Oh, run with bad luck in a nowhere state

Oh, high above us now in a big jet plane

I'm always on my own

I'm always on my own


See the dried flood lines on the neighbors porches

You remember crying for all them horses

They did not look scared at all

They did not look scared, they did not look scared at all
