Wild Horses

Didn't wanna be a soldier Wanted to be a child Fall in love with the world Feel alive Forced to be a hero when I was left behind Grew up in an instant to survive "It's a miracle," the crowd all screams Everyone's so proud of me But I'm a graveyard Oh I'm in deep Miss the person I never got to be Never got to be wild like the horses Naive like a child Horrors of the world came knocking, knocking My feet were in the grass Dancing through the trees I saw it when heaven came falling, falling Cried at cracks of thunder Saw the flood appear Swallowed everything I held near Should've been wild like the horses But I had to leave my childhood in the dirt Six feet below me Never saw it coming Now I can't relax I'm all hypervigilance, under attack Cuz I know a secret my friends don't understand Safety's an illusion Fate is all chance "It's a miracle," the crowd all screams Everyone's so proud of me But I'm a graveyard Oh I'm in deep Miss the person I never got to be Never got to be wild like the horses Naive like a child Horrors of the world came knocking, knocking My feet were in the grass Dancing through the trees I saw it when heaven came falling, falling Cried at cracks of thunder Saw the flood appear Swallowed everything I held near Should've been wild like the horses But I had to leave my childhood in the dirt Six feet below me I was way too young I was way too young, way too I was way too young I was way too young, way too How could you be gone? How could you be gone, you be How could you be gone? How could you be gone, you be When I close my eyes I still feel the grass, feel the sun Oh wild horses, how you run
