Pony Apprehension Songtext
von Holopaw

The fawn folded up its legs
And fell into a swim
Or was that sleeping?
Drifted off to the place
Where the songbirds are weeping
For the rattle in their chests
And the hum across the wire
Says the spring, she woke up dead
With a broken back and a note that read
"Maybe"


The swan sang himself to sleep
Crying over his transistor
Shivered by a slow burn
Unaware the night was icing over
Sent the letter with a robber′s blush
And pony apprehension
Expecting it might return
Like the mighty Appaloosa
In lazy, looping hair
He'd written the words, "Yes, no, maybe"

Ears twitched the air
He′d distanced the transistor radio
But the signal dropped off as the clouds rolled in
The signal dropped off as the clouds rolled in
To cover over the clearing

The fawn lost the sky
For the haze in the silhouette
Why, oh why?
Blinked his lids for the snowflakes falling
Blinked his lids for the snowflakes
Wishing he'd said yes
Wish upon wishing he'd said yes
