Different Color

Riding down a winding trail

through the lightning and the thunder.

Hold on tight or you might fall

and the ground might crack and take you under.

Is that a pale horse and rider there?

A blood-red stallion stabbing the air?

Or a fire-tongued nightmare?

Mister, that's a horse of a different color.

Underneath a shattered sky

that clouds your eyes and makes you wonder

as the trees that you ride by

turn into one another.

Is that a pale horse and rider there...

You hear the sound of your horse's hooves,

a sound that grows louder and louder

but you can't see the ground passing under you,

just tall grasses and strange flowers.

Is that a pale horse and rider there...
