Horsehead Lyrics

Horse head go you bug eyed
Horse head left the day for night
Horse head ain't no dragonfly
Horse head help you live a lie

You can not see the hole in front of you
And I will see you down if you want me to

You are blessed with just one life
All you are is what's inside
If you take, then step aside
Jesus gave until he died

Horse head feel your soul fall
Horse head gonna take a die
Horse head ain't no good at all
Horse head said you're gonna die

You can not see the hole in front of you
And I will see you down if you want me to

You are blessed with just one life
All you are is what's inside
If you take, then step aside
Jesus gave until he died

You can not see the hole in front of you
And I will see you down if you want me to

You are blessed with just one life
All you are is what's inside
If you take, then step aside
Jesus gave until he died

All you are, all you are

Excuse me... this is a good song, but does anyone have a single idea what this freaking song means? I'm personally confused.

Song Meaning
Cover art for Horsehead lyrics by Black Crowes, The

I interpret this as an anti-drug song, specifically anti-heroin. Heroin is commonly referred to as "horse" in drug circles. "You can not see the hole in front of you" - you think you can handle the drug but you soon find that you've slipped down the rabbit hole of addiction. "If you take, then step aside" - if you abuse your body with this poison, be ready to suffer the consequences.

This song rocks your soul. I love the back ground sings and the build up to Chris' scream. Just amazing!
