One Horse Race

I said honey if you ever died

I'd be mortified for forty-five

Sweetheart if our worlds collide

We'd both be bruised inside

I am the muscle between your legs

I am the air keeping you alive

We sleep under the streetlights

Hoping tonight will be the night

I said baby all the love you give

Broken bones and cartilage

We're walking through the docks tonight

Looking out for the lights

Feel the shimmers of the earthquake

Breeding animals that keep you awake

Feeling at one with the falling snow

More than anybody cares to know

I don't have enough to last me through

And no amount of faith will do

Oh we're broken but we fit together

You are the glue between my parts

I am the silent assassin

I am the silent assassin

You are the star in your own game show

More than anybody cares to know

One horse, one horse

This is a one horse race

This is not a test of faith
