Born On a Horse
Equestrian Reflections: Biffy Clyro's Poetic Journey
Lyrics
I pronounce it aluminium
The singer pronounces "aluminium" this way due to the placement of 'I' next to 'U' and 'M'.
'cause there's an I next to the U and M
Explaining the reasoning behind the pronunciation of "aluminium."
Now write it down slowly
Instruction to write it slowly.
And read it out fast
Then read it quickly.
Shes got eyes
Describing someone's eyes.
Propostrious eyes
Emphasizing the remarkable nature of the eyes.
I've never had a lover who's my sister or my brother before
Highlighting the uniqueness of never having a romantic relationship with a sibling.
I've been counting on the wrong things
Realization of relying on incorrect things for happiness.
To make life feel alright
The speaker's attempts to find solace in wrong elements.
You can be
An invitation or statement to someone.
My icy queen
Offering someone the role of a distant, unemotional partner.
'till the end of time
Commitment to this distant relationship until eternity.
You can have it all
Granting everything to someone.
You're stuck in the middle
A feeling of being trapped or stagnant.
Reason one and all
Presenting reasons or justifications.
I was born on a horse thats all
Declaring an unusual birth scenario.
I like to think im just a thorough bread
Self-perception as a high-quality individual.
Open name with no horses flesh
Describing oneself as unadulterated.
We're galloping slowly
Moving slowly through a difficult situation.
Through this broken glass
Metaphorically traversing a challenging circumstance.
Shes got hoofs
Describing someone's feet in a hyperbolic manner.
Proposterious hoofs
Emphasizing the unusual nature of the feet.
Ive never had a lover who's my sister or my brother before
Reiteration of never having a romantic relationship with a sibling.
I've been counting on the wrong things
Reiterating reliance on incorrect elements for happiness.
To make life feel alright
Seeking comfort in the wrong aspects of life.
You can be my icy queen till the end of time
Offering the same distant, unemotional relationship.
You can have it all
Granting everything to someone.
You're stuck in the middle
Feeling trapped or stagnant.
Reason one and all
Providing reasons or justifications.
I was born on a horse thats all
Reiteration of an unusual birth scenario.
You can have it all
Duplicating the offer to grant everything to someone.
You're stuck in the middle
Feeling trapped or stagnant, again.
Reason one and all
Presenting reasons or justifications, again.
I was born on a horse thats all
Reiteration of an unusual birth scenario, again.
