HORSESHOE Lyrics by Gao the Arsonist

AND THEY MINE FOR OUR BODIES

2024

[Hook]
Dried out bones are sun-bleached
Bite down on my tongue, please
Limestone in my gums
Teeth dissolve in an instant
Stomach walls corroded
Not that you would notice
Not that you would notice
(Notice)
[Refrain]
You make me sick
Sick
You make me sick
You make me sick
[Hook]
Dried out bones are sun-bleached
Bite down on my tongue, please
Limestone in my gums
Teeth dissolve in an instant (Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha)
Stomach walls corroded
Not that you would notice
Not that you would notice
(Notice)
[Refrain]
You make me sick
Sick
You make me sick
You make me sick (This is the Arsonist)
[Chorus]
You didn't recognise my face in the courtroom
I'm the one you paid to run your sword through
It's okay, skim the pages just to sort through
Swear I'd love to pin the blame but can't afford to
Caught me finished raiding the fortune
Now I look as pale as a corpse do
I'm the one who drove the nail in the horseshoe
I'm the one who drove the nail in the h—
[Post-Chorus]
I'm the one who drove the nail in the horseshoe (You make me sick)
I'm the one who drove the nail in the horseshoe (Sick)
Horseshoe (You make me sick)
I'm the one who drove the nail in the horseshoe (You make me sick)
I'm the one who drove the nail in the horseshoe
Horseshoe
[Verse]
“Bent the metal for your protection”
Told that lie for the jockey
God knows our bones are artifacts so men mine for our bodies
I soften the blow of the kill shot to help with the guilt but the method’s sloppy (Yuh)
It’s blackmail, threaten and lobby
On my knees I beg you stop me (Huh, yuh)
(Damn) I’m not built for these heights
Statue still under pillars
Catching filth in your eyes
Swear it hurts me more than you when I make you squeal for your life
Is this that the hill that you’ll die on? (No)
[Bridge]
I fuse steel to the keratin
I could shield you from anything that bruises
In the field that you’ll perish in
Kick my heel where you’ve already been wounded
They keeled and I buried them
If they healed then the medicine’s useless
I'm as ill as I've ever been
I'm as ill as I've ever been
[Drop]
Deep breath
Hand to throat
Steal both the venom and the antidote
Deal death, annex poach
Panic, choke
I'm frantic
Frantic
Brittle jaw
Fickle plans
Cut out a pound of flesh with the middle man
Admit I'm wrong?
Little chance
Panic, choke
I'm damaged
[Chorus]
You didn't recognise my face in the courtroom
I'm the one you paid to run your sword through
It's okay, skim the pages just to sort through
Swear I'd love to pin the blame but can't afford to
Caught me finished raiding the fortune
Now I look as pale as a corpse do
I'm the one who drove the nail in the horseshoe
I'm the one who drove the nail in the h—
