Horse Tattoo

Lay down and let your body grow old
Unwind your tethered soul
In ways that we were never told
We were never told

I wore myself out wishing myself down south
Life's teeth sink like a stone into my still raspy throat

Shoes don't last so long in the city
Gravel tearing at our soles
Shoes don't last so long in the city
Gravel tearing at our souls
And I attest to growing wild

What if I just disappear?
If I am blessed, then where's my fire?
Let it all just disappear

What if I just disappear?

Shoes don't last so long in the city
I'm sorry, it hurts to be all that I am
