Horses Head

At the bottom of a barely-beating heart Is the tinder and the flint Just waiting for the fire to spark And it's a common theme To be on your knees When all you want is to be standing up And at the centre of the Earth is the molten core We retreat when we dig too deep But it's the heat that keeps us coming back for more 'Cause we're compelled to know What awaits down the rabbit's hole So wring your hands or beat your chests, but go Oh, up to the 25th floor where you'd never been before And you like the view until you see the silver-plattered bitter pill But chances are chances Swallow like the man says And at the edge of the earth is the mortal coil Unraveling a spool, a thread, a web we weave Then ask for more And if it's more you choose But then lament, bemoan, accuse The more you came to claim, you'll stand to lose Oh, up to the 25th floor where you'd never been before And you like the view until you see the silver-plattered bitter pill But chances are chances Swallow like the man says And right from the very beginning There's always been somebody singing And somebody else who'll flash you fancy chances And there'll always be a hook to the chorus So go write one for us You ask for some help instead They hand you the horse's head Shine, shine, shine, shine your light on me I don't mind As long as you see me shine, shine, shine, shine Shine, shine, shine, shine your light on me I don't mind As long as you see me shine, shine, shine But right from the very beginning There's always been somebody singing And right 'til the end, my friend There'll always be somebody listening So drink one for sorrow And two for tomorrow And right from the very beginning There's always been somebody singing And somebody else who'll flash you fancy chances And there'll always be a hook to the chorus So go write one for us You ask for some help instead They hand you the horse's head You ask for some help instead They hand you the horse's head You ask for some help instead They hand you the horse's head
