I can't control myself
And the feelings that I've never shown
Like a wild stallion never to be tamed
And forced to roam the earth alone

No I never thought
That I could ever be
Someone's Christmas present
Held in your captivity

Wild hearts can't be broken
But right now I'm feeling blue
You can lead a horse to water
But he won't drink when he's missing you

So I think im gonna live my life
Thinking about everything I left behind
Dreaming about a place ill never see
And people I'll never love thats kind

And I think im gonna run away
And maybe eat my weight in hay
Cursing those people
That make us out to be purses
I think im going to live like horses

I can get mean
If you stand too close to me
It's just in my nature don't be alarmed
Because like you I have a broken heart

Deep down I really want to feel
My ribs getting hurt by a thousand heels
And somewhere to get myself warm
When nights gets cold

Life is never easy
When it's only you in the field
New horses come around
But they don't feel how I feel

So I think im gonna live my life
Thinking about everything I left behind
Dreaming about a place ill never see
And people I'll never love thats so kind

And I think im gonna run away
And maybe eat my weight in hay
Cursing those people
That make us out to be purses
I think im going to live like horses
