Wild Horses
Bishop Briggs Lyrics

You hold me down in the best way
You support me in the most loving and caring manner.

No quarter from these chains that I've
I can't escape from the emotional burden and pain that I carry with me.

Slept on my heart for a feeling
I have ignored my true emotions for so long, that it feels like my heart has been asleep.

Why can't I let my demons out?
I am struggling to confront and release the negative thoughts and feelings that haunt me.

Keep screaming into the pillow
I am bottling up my emotions and trying to hide my pain from the world.

Cause your taste still gets me stupid high
Your presence and love have a strong and addictive impact on me.

Oh glory, I'm a believer
I have found hope and faith in something or someone that has given me strength from within.

Oh glory, I'm a troubler
Despite finding faith, I am still troubled and in search of peace.

Wild horses, wild horses
The unpredictable and uncontrollable emotions and thoughts inside me.

Wild horses run faster, run faster
These emotions and thoughts are becoming harder to control and are picking up pace.

You call my truth in the worst way
You make me confront and face the harsh reality of myself and my situation.

Through the dirty lands of a broken smile
Despite appearing happy, there is turmoil and pain beneath the surface.

And I swear I'm not a pretender
I am not pretending to be someone I'm not or hiding behind a mask.

Sometimes it's love who's the baby's cry
Love can bring both joy and pain, just like a baby's cry can be both happy and sorrowful.

So, I keep on damning the devil
I keep fighting and resisting the negative and destructive forces in my life.

And you keep on saying it's alright
You keep reassuring me that everything will be okay and that you'll be there for me.

Oh Lord, I'm holding tight, but
Despite trying to hold on, I am struggling to keep my grip.

Wild horses, wild horses
The wild and powerful emotions and thoughts are still within me.

Wild horses run faster, run faster
These emotions and thoughts are becoming even harder to control and are still picking up pace.

Run faster
The need to confront and address these intense emotions and thoughts is becoming even more urgent.

Wild horses run faster, run faster
These wild and powerful emotions and thoughts are almost taking control of me.

Run faster
I can no longer ignore or suppress my feelings, it's time to face them head-on.

Wild horses run faster, run faster
These emotions and thoughts have become uncontainable.

Run faster
It's time to take charge and face these emotions and thoughts, no matter how difficult it may be.
