Lyrics

MISS GOLDEN HORSE SUBLIME
BY RUSTY NEWCOMER
3/17/75

SHE'S RIDING ON THE DAWNED HORIZON
WITH MOONLIGHT IN HER HAIR
SHE RODE UPON A GOLDEN STEED
WHOSE MANE CONTROLLED THE AIR
IN ONE QUICK MOTION SHE RAISED HER STAFF
AND LIGHTNING STRUCK A FLASH
WHEN MY EYES COULD SEE AGAIN
MANY THINGS HAD PASSED

I FELT HER LIFT ME FROM MY FEET
WHILE MY BODY STILL REMAINED
AND FOR ALL THE THINGS THAT COULD HAPPEN TO ME
I COULD FELL NO PAIN
WE RODE OUR SOULS INTO THE SKY
TO A PLACE UNKNOWN
IN THE SHORT TIME THAT I WAS GONE
TWICE MY SIZE I'VE GROWN

SHE LED ME TO TEMPTATIONVILLE
TO TEST MY STRENGTH INSIDE
AND ALL THE BEAUTYS INSIDE THE TOWN
ONLY ONE WAS RIGHT ONLY ONE WAS RIGHT
(INSTRUMENTAL)
SHE PUT ME IN A DUNGEON PIT
WITH SNAKES AND RATS AND COLD
NOW I FIND THE ONES WHO FEAR
ARE THE DISCONTENTED SOULS

SO PRY UPON YOUR RAGGED SELF
TO LEAVE YOUR BODE BEHIND
AND FLY UPON THE DISTANCE WINDS WITH
MISS GOLDEN HORSE SUBLIME
MISS GOLDEN HORSE SUBLIME

SO WHEN YOU HEAR A WHISTLING SOUND
AND LOOK INTO THE SKY
JUST REMEMBER FOLKS
WHAT'S UP THERE FOR WHEN YOU DIE

Remember those beautiful jangly guitars from the Cure's "Seventeen Seconds and "Faith"? That same style of guitar works wonders in this song. The melody and instrumentation is eerily gentle and the clapping drums hint at the hooves of the golden horse. Vocals are appropriately monotoned and confident. It tells an interesting story without using common phrases, yet they remind me just a bit of Frank Zappa's "The Torture Never Stops." The entire mix makes for a good goth song!
