bended knee - the heavy horses lyrics
[verse 1]
i heard the cavalry ride that day
my parents hid me and there i’d stay
then those troops came one by one
men with honor, men with virtue, men with none
[verse 2]
when they held her, i heard him cry
and when they butchered him, i watched her die
i shed no tears and vowed that day
men would crumble, men would suffer, men would pay
[chorus]
before the war came, i was free
then a darkness consumed me
the face of war is all i see
and i find no hope on bended knee
[verse 3]
i kept my word as the years crept by
i slaughtered all to watch them die
i’d make them doubt, oh they believed
men can marry, men can father, men can grieve
[verse 4]
they’d beg their lords, they did my will
their wives would scream and their children still
i heard their stories one by one
men have prayers, men have regrets, i have none
[chorus]
before the war came, i was free
now a darkness consumes me
i’m the last face men will see
when they waste their breath on bended knee
