Will's Song
Caligula's Horse Lyrics

Find me
The singer is lost and wants to be found.

I could chase the very sun
The singer is willing to go to great lengths to be found.

There could be something left, a little piece of me
The singer fears that they will soon be gone, but hopes that there is something left of them to be found.

Out there, cast against the waves
The artist is alone and defenseless, struggling against adversity and the unknown.

Your seven days of peace and nothing left of me
The artist feels as though they have only had a brief moment of calm before being lost again.

Face down in the water that's meant for me
The singer feels like they are drowning and struggling to breathe.

One more
The singer is resigned to their fate and expecting to die soon.

Isn't this everything that you asked for?
The artist is questioning why they are suffering and wondering if it is what they deserve.

There's no love for the living and empty lungs
The artist feels like they are unloved and struggling to keep going.

Sing that song
The artist wants to be remembered, even if they can no longer sing.

It's lights out, give them something to live for
The singer wants to use their death to inspire others to live life to the fullest.

You best run home, boy
The artist is warning someone to go back to where they came from before it's too late.

Before you wear the way
The singer is telling the person to leave before they get too familiar and put themselves in danger.

You can run your mouth at every lie that marks the way
The singer is telling the person not to listen to rumors and false information that might lead them astray.

You best run far, boy
The singer is warning the person to go as far away as possible to protect themselves.

With these old bones, I can fill your lungs with the last of my breath
The artist is offering to help the person escape, even if it is at the cost of their own life.

I am the flame that lit the way
The artist sees themselves as a guiding light, illuminating the darkness and leading the way.

You feed and grow by my will
The singer believes that they have the power to influence and control others.

When time breeds only decay
The singer believes that everything is inevitably going to fall apart and decay over time.

Oh please, I am that young man still
The artist still feels young at heart, despite all their hardships.

Let the colours run
The artist wants to let their emotions and passions pour out freely.

Breathe while the waves rise
The artist is urging someone to keep breathing and stay alive, even when things get difficult.

Fill my lungs, the sacred waters
The singer is asking to be revitalized and rejuvenated by the healing power of water.

Down, ever down, dive
The artist is descending deeper and deeper into the unknown, pursuing something they cannot name.

Follow (Could have been)
The singer is asking for guidance and assistance on the journey.

Still need it (Someone)
The singer is admitting that they still need someone to help them, despite their inner strength.

To lead me (To the wind)

To save me (Song)
The artist wants to be rescued from their own despair through the power of music and art.

Feel it (Feel the beast)
The artist is encouraging someone to tap into their own primal nature and unleash their inner strength.

It's fading (Never)
The singer is acknowledging that all good things, including strength, can fade away or never truly materialize.

To nothing (To complete)
The singer is afraid of being consumed by nothingness, or reaching a state of completion that feels like emptiness.

To ashes
The artist is acknowledging that everything will eventually turn to dust and decay.

Giving in (It could be)
The artist is contemplating surrendering to the unknown and embracing the uncertainty of life.

Over (Another)
The artist is hoping for a new beginning after their current trials are over.

Triumph (Song)
The singer hopes that a victorious moment will come in the future, perhaps fueled by the power of music.

Bring me (Like a child)
The artist is asking to be taken care of and nurtured, like a child who needs a parent.

The poison (Take it)
The singer is willing to take risks and accept dangerous things if it will help them grow stronger.

To lead me (To the wind)
The singer is asking to be guided by fate or destiny, even if it seems impossible to understand.

To save me
The singer is asking to be rescued from their own despair and given a new lease on life.

It's lights out, give them something to live for
The artist wants their death to have meaning and inspire others to live their best lives.
