Headless Horsemen

Since I was seven, I've had a dream of a man

Taking off his head and giving it to his girlfriend.

 

While it scared me at first, I've come to realize

Just because he's headless doesn't mean that he dies.

 

The sleepiest of hollows, he still can ride on

It's just his head that's missing, his heart isn't gone.

 

So headless, the horsemen, still gallops forward

Chasing a love that can't be ignored.

 

Now his girlfriend holds his head close and dear

If you follow your heart, love will always be near.
