  • Can't help seeking corners
    Of dark and deadend roads
    Where the drinks keep pouring down
    And the candles keep me warm

    Isolation tender
    Something fragile coming soon
    Skinny angels making eyes at cameras
    Perched in every room

    I had a good run playing horses in my mind
    Left my heart out somewhere running
    Wanting strangers to be mine
    Memory's a sacred meat
    That's drying all the time
    On a hillside I remember
    I am loving losing life

    Strawberries in springtime
    Pretty happy accidents
    My awareness that I'm lucky
    Rolling clouds over cement

    Maybe there's a screenplay
    Or a bathroom I can hide
    Down the hallways of a high school
    And the dances left behind

    I had a good run playing horses in my mind
    Left my heart out somewhere running
    Wanting strangers to be mine
    I would climb the Eiffel Tower
    Write letters on the sky
    How many turns it took to reach you

    I had a good run playing horses in my mind
    On a hillside I remember
    I am loving losing life Writer/s: Alex Kristian Scally, Victoria Garance Alixe Legrand
