Hold Your Horses - Pati Yang

Blindness never felt this good before

Kindness deadly but precious, like a child’s reward

Been lately crushed lik pills and cut into thin lines

Hold your horses and please don’t do anything you would regret

Hold your horses and just tell your heart to take it step by step

And if you’re patient baby stand by me till I am ready

One day I will lay your path with roses

So used to being confused, I am hooked on memories

With open wounds the size of black holes that never heal

You could have had me eating from your hand

But instead you said:

Hold your horses and please don’t do anything you would regret

Hold your horses and just tell your heart to take it step by step

And if you’re patient baby stand by me till I am ready

One day I will lay your path with roses

Hold your horses and please keep your cards much closer to your chest

Hold your horses, let’s not run before we dare to dance again

And if you’re patient baby have trust in all that can be

Time will tell if that’s what has been chosen

Numb and comfortable in that web of sticky lies

I watched the world sending signs.

I couldn’t move I couldn’t smile

Paralysed by fear I could be happy by your side…
