Big horse
Little horse
Dark horse
Crazy horse
Back in the saddle again
Back in the saddle again
Back in the saddle again
Colic
Foot rot
Founder
And bott flies
Back in the saddle again
Back in the saddle again
Molasses
Sugar cubes
Pastures
New horse shoes
Back in the saddle again
Back in the saddle again
Big horse
Little horse
Big horse
Little horse

Backing Away
02:50
|

I feel you backing away
A little step each day
I hear you hesitate
It’s what you don’t say
Are you losing me
Cos I’m losing you
Static on the line
Everything on the line
Is it wrong to fight
I don’t see fight in your eyes
Is it wrong to win
Someone else’s prize
And is it right to hold you
Just after I told you
I feel you backing away
Last night at the bar
You were
Far away
We’ll tell all our friends
That everything is okay
But I'm losing you
Are you losing me
Static on the line
Everything on the line
Is it wrong to fight
I don’t see fight in your eyes
Is it wrong to win
Someone else’s prize
And is it right to hold you
Just after I told you
I feel you backing away
Backing away
Are you losing me
Cos I’m losing you

Better Believe It

You’d better believe it baby
Ain’t no ifs buts or maybes
Think about you on the daily
If anyone could ever save me
It's gonna be you
It’s gonna be you
I got a life to live
And people to share it with
As to the love I want to give
You’d better believe that it’s
Gonna be you
It's gonna be you
It's gonna be you

Passing

Where did I get
All these scars
you ran your key
All down my car
So I can’t
forget
Rust has come
As time has passed
The sun wont rise
Past half mast
Only when I’m wasted
Only when laughing
I’m strong enough to face it
And I can feel you passing
Anger coats
The incision
And it won’t erase
Your decision
Only when I’m wasted
Only when laughing
I’m strong enough to face it
And I can feel you passing
Only when I’m ready
And feeling forgiving
Only when I’m steady
I can start beginning
I never blamed you
Isn’t that strange
We never were on
The same page

Here, Look

Here look
I’ve nothing to hide from you
Here look
I’ve nothing to hide from you
I’m bad
I’m good too
Too
It’s not so simple as heaven and hell
It’s the difference I can’t tell
Maybe there are more
Choices than you thought
Here look
At what you have done
I too want to be forgiven
Everybody does
It’s not so simple as heaven and hell
It’s the difference I can’t tell
Maybe there are more
Choices than you thought
Dont drive a wedge between yourself and the truth
Moments like these pass like youth
Dont drive a wedge between yourself and the truth
Moments like these pass like youth
Anger’s not enough
To change the world takes love

Annabelle

I’ve never run from nothing
Naiive in all my courage
I never knew a beautiful world
Could grow something so rotten
This disease of hatred
Fear and loathing in the neighbourhood
I never knew a beautiful world
Could grow such an ugly girl
Annabelle
She hurts the ones that love her most
Hell no longer scares me
I’ve seen the darkest things
It’s not the possession of evil
It’s the lack of loving
Annabelle
She hurts the ones who love her most
As scared as I may be
Strength is in empathy
Some nights I cry at home
No one deserves to die alone
But maybe she will
If she hurts the ones that love her most
Annabelle
You hurt the ones you love the most
Is it too late to learn to love?

Ashamed

I take my medication
With uneasy dedication
I drink my pay check with
Level headed moderation
It takes a lot of work, diligence and contemplation
Trying not to fuck up
And working on my patience
I’m ashamed but I wouldn’t change it
I’m to blame I can’t rearrange it
It’s too sad to say
I’d go back and choose a different way
I see people who hurt me
And those who I’ve hurt in turn
It stings to walk by all the lessons that I’ve had to learn
Never simple never fair
Right and wrong make good pair
I’m ashamed but I can take it
I’m proud I never faked it
I’m ashamed but I wouldn’t change it
I’m to blame and I can’t rearrange it
It’s too sad to say
I’d go back and choose a different way
It’s not easy for me to
Remember loving you
The half light and the mildew
The warmth I felt while holding you
Replaced with chills and shaking
Clenched jaw and hate making
I’m ashamed but I can take it
I’m proud I never faked it
I’m ashamed but I wouldn’t change it
I’m to blame and I won’t rearrange it
It’s too sad to say
I’d go back
And choose a different way

Woman Like Me
02:48
|

|
Peace and quiet
simplicity
don't come easy for a woman like me
Tooth and nail
heat and hail
Duplicity
is easy for a woman like me
No point in trying to hide
They’re scared of what they see
They don’t know what to do with
a woman like me
When ego reigns
Sharp as a knife
I love like a man
And cry like a wife
No point in trying to hide
They’re scared of what they see
you’re looking in a mirror
When you’re looking at me
But I can be gentle
I can be sweet
Loving a man like you
Is easy for a woman like me

Wisdom Isn't Worth It
02:52

|
Wisdom isn’t worth it
Not another lesson
I don’t want to learn
If it’s going to hurt
I would rather remain
innocent as the day
I broke a heart the first time
Wisdom isn’t worth it
Wisdom isn’t worth it
Put me on another production line
I don’t want to know
What it is I’m making
Wisdom isn’t worth it
Wisdom isn’t worth it
Dumb deaf and kind
Dumb deaf and kind

Used to think the world was cruel
But indifference is cruelest of it all
Used to think that she was pure
But our nature has no cure
And it is what it is
Can't let this
Bitter my sweetness
Loved you like a pig in muck
But most pigs get down on their luck
It is what it is
And it hurts like fuck
Put my hand in your heart
to treat like your own body part
But you’re hurting yourself
And it is what it is
Can't let this
Bitter my sweetness
