I think about these Nick Cave lyrics a lot
The bright horses have broken free from the fields
They are horses of love, their manes full of fire
They are parting the cities, those bright burning horses
And everyone is hiding, no one makes a sound
And Iβm by your side and Iβm holding your hand
Bright horses of wonder springing from your burning hand
And everyone has a heart and itβs calling for something
And we are all so sick and tired of seeing things as they are
Horses are just horses and their manes arenβt full of fire
And the fields are just fields and there ainβt no Lord
And everyone is hidden and everyone is cruel
And there is no shortage of tyrants and no shortage of fools
And the little white shape dancing at the end of the hall
Is just a wish that time canβt dissolve at all
