Name: The Horse Dark Lady
Duration: P00H04M04S
Description: This song is about a woman who lives on the shores of the river Styx. She'a a ghoul. She wasn't able to enter Hades, the underworld, because she couldn't pay the ferryman. A long time ago, she left society and lived with horses. She pulled a gun on anyone who tried to speak to her. She's a saint, she's a sinner. Her story lives on in the dreams of those who feel the same.

lyrics

Horse Dark Lady

she didn’t learn a lot in school
with people she don’t get along
though she knows all the words
she becomes a mute when spoken to

when spoken to she cries
she’s ashamed of other people’s words
cause all people do is talk talk talk
why doesn’t anybody ever shut up

if she had the time she could prepare herself
for the words that haven’t yet been said
but every time someone speaks to her
they throw words like stones into her face

she doesn’t want to be compared to others
only the unknown makes her feel safe
over time she grew hard an mean
now she’s a nightmare for husbands fathers and mothers

when spoken to she cries
she’s ashamed of other people’s words
cause all people do is talk talk talk
why doesn’t anybody ever shut up

she moved out of town a long time ago
she lives with horses now in stables dark and cold
she calls herself the horse dark lady
she pulls a gun on any man who speaks to her

she’s a saint
she’s a sinner
she’s every man’s dream for sure
she calls herself the horse dark lady
she pulls a gun on any man who speaks to her
