lyrics

She was wide awake in bed
With pink sheets and a bruised heart, and voices in her head
She was slowly getting stoned
To the sound of the TV and muffled screams in a cold suburban home
The sound of the TV and muffled screams in a cold suburban home

Wild horses break the chains
Wild flowers bring the rains
Wild whispers heal all her hidden pain
Mmm, some horses can’t be tamed

She was standing in the cold
With pink cheeks and a bruised heart, and a tickle in her throat
Always leaning to the wind
With the weight of young lust for road dust and tainted innocence
Yeah, young lust for road dust and tainted innocence

Wild horses break the chains
Wild flowers bring the rains
Wild whispers heal all her hidden pain
Mmm, some horses can’t be tamed
Some horses can't be tamed
La da da da da...

Wild horses break the chains
Wild flowers bring the rains
Wild whispers heal all her hidden pain
Mmm, some horses can’t be tamed
Some horses can’t be tamed
Some horses can’t be tamed
Some horses can’t be tamed, ah-ah
