Cop killing coal mining starvation wages
The endtimes the headlines the hate was contagious
And when I get too high I'm deadeye complacent
And when I need money I take it
A thinkpiece you know me my hat is capacious
I swore she was flirting she's just a good waitress
I doubled the dosage and still I feel anxious
So when I need something I take it
I don't know these horses
I don't know what they want to be fed
I don't know these horses
I've been cowboying Illinoisan fry me up bacon
Been drunk and obnoxious and passively racist
They lied to us captain they're batshit let's face it
They don't work for their money they take it
There's a beat down in this town so I'm out here scrapping
My chicken feed frenzy my working man's fashion
My underdog story is at best dishonest
Cause when I need something I got it
I don't know these horses
I don't know what they want to be called
I don't know these horses at all
So when's my redemption and who's gonna save me
And how do I start to believe something made me
That life isn't pain that love isn't greed
That the land will provide and those sorts of things
Well here's what I'll say if the Sun now is setting
If the home of the brave is a joke I'm just getting
I may have been ugly I may have been mean
But I had somebody I tried to get free
Yeah I rode every day from dawn until dusk
To help make her way a little less rough
Sure I murdered and I stole
But don't call me evil
It was mostly just money and people
I don't know these horses
And I can't get them out of my head
I don't know these goddamn horses
And I'm not sure if I want to
Or if maybe I like it this way
I don't know these horses
