Just when I thought
The demons I fought
Were dead and gone
Straight out of the blue
Someone like you
Comes along
And I don't have to turn
And look over my shoulder
I already know
From the sound
There's a thousand wild horses
Thundering behind me
Hellbent on runnin' me down
I thought I was fast
But the sins of my past
They're faster still
And I'm wasting my time
Tryin' to leave them behind
Cause I never will
One drink too many
One kiss too deep
And I feel that old shacking the ground
That's a thousand wild horses
Thundering behind me
Hellbent on runnin' me down Each one is branded
Each one is mine
Each one's a darkness
I can't deny
I know they are coming
There's no place to hide
I'm gonna get run down
Or I'm gonna ride
Right now
They're just a big cloud of dust
But pretty soon
I'll do something stupid
Like I tend to do
And I let them loose
So if you're thinking that maybe
That you're the one who can save me
Baby this ain't no merry-go-round
It's a thousand wild horses
Thundering behind me
Hellbent on runnin' me down
I got a thousand wild horses
Thundering behind me
Hellbent on runnin' me down
