I Was Once a Horse Lyrics

I was once a horse
You were once a whore
Like seeping through the trees
Into the calm before the storm

You held the light
I drew the dark sky
On my left eye
On my right eye

I was once a horse
You were once a whore
We made it through the mud
Up to our necks in love

I held the flame
You held your mouth in pain
On your neck

Someday come back home
Someday come back home

Pulled the curtains the shut
Open up, open shut
If you've had enough
Call my bluff
Open up

Someday come back home
Someday come back home
Back home
Someday back home
Someday, someday come back home

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
