Roll the dice I'm going in to claim my name The race is on fire away Labyrinth of sliding doors the choice is mine Where I go becomes who I am I am my father's eyes I am my mother's heart I am my brother's hands and the chance Of soft, safe ground anything I become Will affect everyone everything I have done Will remain under the sun Dreams come undone like paper under city lights We flock to play broken horses Let's play like broken horses Here's my shot fail me not I place my bets Don't hesitate no time to waste Cover me my hands are stiff and trembling cold Cover me this once for I have lost control Cover me for I'm about to stake my soul It's in the woods it's in the breeze It's heading fast over hills and seas It's in the branches and all the leaves It's under ground and above the trees It's in the air upon my skin Beneath the crust and the cage I'm in It's in the streets it's all there is And all around And from afar I see the lights of shooting stars Oh if you were only among them I would let you go see our lives from up above And way down I'd still be here playing broken horses I'd be playing broken horses
