Silver Stallion
Cat Power Lyrics

I'm gonna steal a silver stallion
I'm going to acquire an untamed but beautiful creature.

With not a mark upon his silky hide
The silver stallion has not been branded or physically marked in any way.

Teach him he can trust me like a sister
I'll invest time and effort into developing mutual trust between myself and the stallion.

One day we'll saddle up and ride
Once the stallion trusts me, we'll embark on a ride together.

[Chorus]
The repetition of the chorus is a reflection of the strong desire to undertake the journey and ride fearlessly.

I'm gonna find me a reckless man
I'll seek out an adventurous, wild and free-spirited individual.

Razor blades and ice in his eyes
His eyes are fierce and unflinching, hard like steel, piercing like razors and cold like ice.

Just a touch of sadness in his fingers
Despite his outer tough appearance, there is still a hint of softness within him.

Thunder and lightning in his thighs
He's full of power, energy and vigor, his thighs are forceful and firm.

[Chorus]
The repetition of the chorus signifies that these free and adventurous souls are fearless and ready to ride into the unknown.

I'm gonna chase the sky forever
This journey will continue until the end of time, or until they find what they're looking for, which might just be more adventure and discovery.

With the man, the stallion and the wind
All three elements will join together to make an incredible force of natural power and determination.

The sun is gonna burn into a cinder
Even the stars will be burned up by the intensity of this journey before the end of the adventure.

Before we ever pass this way again
Before they return to this place, everything about their lives will have changed because of the journey and experiences they share together.

[Chorus]
The final repetition of the chorus is a signal that this quest is never going to end, and these souls will still continue their free and adventurous journey.
