Horse
Equestrian Reflections: A Melodic Journey of Love and Loss
Lyrics
I knew a horse
I had a close connection with a horse.
I watered him everyday
I took care of the horse by providing water regularly.
We got divorced
We separated or ended our relationship.
Then everything changed
Life changed significantly after the separation.
And then I left
I departed from the situation.
In pursuit of Scottish showers
I pursued experiences, specifically referencing Scottish showers.
Hope the horses there know how to sprout flowers
Expressing hope that horses in the new place understand how to grow flowers.
There was a bird
A bird came into the picture.
Who showed me her ways
The bird shared its ways or knowledge with me.
I did my best
I put effort into learning and practicing.
And practiced everyday
I made a sincere effort every day.
But did not learn
Despite efforts, I couldn't learn how to make horses grow or thrive.
How to make horses grow
Due to the inability to nurture horses, I decided to move on.
Now I've packed my bags and hit the road
I've left and embarked on a journey.
I still find the soil of our love
The remnants of our love still linger, symbolized by soil in my teeth and dreams.
In my teeth and in my dreams
The memories persist in my thoughts and dreams.
But I know it was a fruitless affair
Acknowledging that the past relationship was futile.
And I'll leave that to the bird and her bees
Leaving the past to the bird and her bees, indicating a separation from the old connection.
You may hear this tale
Addressing the audience, suggesting they might underestimate my understanding.
And think I don't know a thing
Despite appearances, I claim to have knowledge and experience.
But I swear
Asserting that I have heard the horse sing.
I've heard that horse sing
Confident in my understanding of the horse's vocal expressions.
And I know
Reaffirming the credibility of my knowledge.
What I am talking about
The horse rejected the water I offered, possibly symbolizing rejection or resistance.
He just kept spitting all my water out
The horse consistently refused the water I provided.
I still see him tucking his tail
The image of the horse tucking its tail remains vivid in my thoughts and dreams.
In my thoughts and in my dreams
Recalling the horse's behavior in the mental and dream states.
When the snails are decomposing me
Referencing decomposition, suggesting the passage of time.
I hope he's pollinated by the bees
Expressing a hope for the horse's well-being and continuation through pollination.
I once knew how to plant good seeds
Reflecting on a past ability to sow positive outcomes.
Somehow now the skill escapes me
Despite past knowledge, the ability to plant good seeds is currently elusive.
Shut myself in and I forgot
Isolation led to forgetfulness, a loss of skills.
I'm grown now
Acknowledging maturity but feeling limited, like a moth.
But I'm only a moth
Despite growth, there's a sense of insignificance.
I still see him tucking his tail
Reiterating the image of the horse tucking its tail during sleep.
When I'm falling off to sleep
The memory persists even in moments of falling asleep.
When the snails are decomposing me
Referencing decomposition again, suggesting the inevitability of change.
I hope he's with the bird
Expressing a hope that the horse is with the bird and her bees in a positive continuation.
And her bees
The desire for the horse to find companionship and growth with the bird and her bees.
