Born on a Horse Lyrics

I pronounce it aluminium
'cause there's an I next to the U and M
Now write it down slowly
And read it out fast

Shes got eyes
Propostrious eyes
I've never had a lover who's my sister or my brother before

I've been counting on the wrong things
To make life feel alright
You can be
My icy queen
'till the end of time
You can have it all
You're stuck in the middle
Reason one and all
I was born on a horse thats all

I like to think im just a thorough bread
Open name with no horses flesh
We're galloping slowly
Through this broken glass
Shes got hoofs
Proposterious hoofs
Ive never had a lover who's my sister or my brother before

I've been counting on the wrong things
To make life feel alright
You can be my icy queen till the end of time
You can have it all
You're stuck in the middle
Reason one and all
I was born on a horse thats all

You can have it all
You're stuck in the middle
Reason one and all
I was born on a horse thats all

What is the Meaning of Born on a Horse?

Embracing the peculiarities of identity and perception, Biffy Clyro crafts a song filled with whimsical imagery and existential musings. The lyrics reflect on the absurdity of societal norms, using humor and metaphor to question conventional understanding. The declaration of pronouncing "aluminium" with an extra syllable hints at embracing personal truths despite external standards. References to "propostrious eyes" and "hoofed" characters symbolize the complexity and uniqueness of relationships, breaking the taboo by humorously acknowledging unconventional connections. The repeated refrain "born on a horse" suggests a sense of displacement and eccentric origin, indicating an exploration of one's unique path in life. The underlying theme centers on the search for fulfillment and identity amidst absurdity, encouraging listeners to find comfort in their peculiarities. Ultimately, the song celebrates individuality, urging acceptance and authenticity in navigating life's chaotic journey. #IdentityQuest #EmbraceTheAbsurd #UniquePath #Authenticity
