Sky Division – “Saddle & Silence“, 2026 / Primitive Heart
…a man singing about the simplicity of cowboy’s life, but also about his struggle with modern changes, many of his friends have gone away lured by city life, he gets letters from Dallas, according to him they traded dust for pavement, stars for a flicker and a screen, they claim in Dallas the noise feels endless : )
Saddle & Silence / Lyrics
Sun pulls me out of my blankets
Before my thoughts drift in
Old bay gelding’s waiting
Chewing rope like it’s a game
He knows my boots
Before I call his name
It’s me and my horse
And the long long land
All that I own
Fits in my hands
If the whole world changes
All wired and strange
Me and my horse
Still ride the same
Gate chain clinks at daybreak
He nudges at my sleeve
We circle slow through cattle
Counting lives that never leave
Wind sings low in the cotton
Creek runs thin and brown
I talk small talk to my shadow
He just stares at the ground
It’s me and my horse
And the long long land
All that I own
Fits in my hands
If the whole world changes
All wired and strange
Me and my horse
Still ride the same
Letters come from Dallas
Bright ink
High-rise dreams
Cards from old hands
Smiling
In electric window beams
They traded dust for pavement
Stars for a flicker and a screen
They say the noise feels endless
I say I know what they mean
It’s me and my horse
And the long long land
All that I own
Fits in my hands
If the whole world changes
All wired and strange
Me and my horse
Still ride the same
Some nights I feel that hunger
For streets that never sleep
For faces I ain’t branded
For a promise they all keep
Then I hear his slow soft breathing
Feel his shoulder against my side
There’s a road in his dark eye shining
That’s the only road I ride
It’s me and my horse
And the long long land
All that I own
Fits in my hands
If the whole world changes
All wired and strange
Me and my horse
Still ride the same
