How Many Horses

How many horses
Do you think it takes?
For you to go riding
Through in garden of snakes
You’ll never make it
Oh no, but you wanna try, alone
Can’t you see you’ll be nothing?
When I’m gone
How many stories
Do you think I’ve heard?
Without ever hearing
I see all of your words
You’ll never take it
Oh no, but you wanna try, alone
Can’t you see you’ll be nothing?
When I’m gone
And the horses
That have carried you
Oh so far from my life
They are lonely
They have traveled now
Oh so long in the night
And the saddle
That has taken you
To the edge of my heart
Has returned now
With a story — we’re apart
How many moments
Do you think have gone
Till you’ll be returning
From your forest of fun
You’ll never take it
Oh no, but you wanna try, alone
Can’t you see you’ll be nothing?
When I’m gone.
