Horse

from Outro by Emilie Kahn

about

"Horse is an earlier song which I wrote after several months of writer’s block and it felt like huge release; lyrically I was finally admitting to myself that a relationship was in fact a rebound and wasn’t working and that I was standing in my own way from moving on. It’s still my favourite to play and perform." - Emilie Kahn

lyrics

-- Lyrics --

Watching you there
Playing your guitar, sweating bullets
Holding every girl in the room, but
I don’t care

Cause you’re not good enough for me
If you don’t stutter when you speak
You can’t hold your breath to ten
But you give good face at nine, eight, seven, oh
But I’m not buying what you’re selling, no
Cause you’re not him and I’m not jealous

Aching, wishing it would ache like the last time
But it never does, it never feels like it’s right
And waiting, clutching at the fence saying L-I-L-Y
Can you scratch my itch?
I wish

It’s time
But you don’t know what I don’t show
I wish
But there’s no more time to take it slow
I wish
But you’re not him and I don’t know

I think you’re letting the fame go to your head
I think that’s enough

I think you’re letting the fame go to your head
I think that’s enough, enough, enough

I think you’re letting the fame go to your head
I think that’s enough (repeated)

You never change, you never grow
Into someone I could love
And I don’t think you’ll ever know how to

I never change and I never grow
Still hung up on that same old
Same old, same old love

I think you’re letting the fame go to your head
I think we’re done
