Racehorse Lyrics

I write quickly

And speak softly

Follow rocks and trees

Without ever bending

I put up signs

To cover up holes

Made by singing songs

With words I'll never know

I am a racehorse

On my last lap

Don't think I'll ever

Think of coming back

I know with deliberation

And I think with flying hands

Hear distant drumming

From not so distant lands

Blanket me in silence

Pierce me with sound

I lay undecided

From the freedom I have found

I am a racehorse

And you are a blade

Someday I'll look back

And see the light we made
