Lyrics for A Horse Is Not a Home as interpreted by 5oclock

A Horse Is Not a Home Lyrics
Oh god, I think I'm dying
and our drinks were just poured.
Look outside someone's waiting
with a yellow horse.

With a hole in the heart I was forced to ride
in morning traffic.
With a golden hand by your fortress side
but without magic.

Somebody tell me it won't be long
'cause a horse is not a home
a horse is not a home.

Uninvited to the play
where language doesn't hurt
with nothing on my shirt.
Sometimes I swim with you
in a room that is ocean-sized and clear not here
where all I breathe is smoke.

With a hole in the heart I was forced to ride
in morning traffic
with a golden hand by your fortress side
but without magic.
Somebody Somebody Somebody tell me it won't be long
'cause a horse is not a home
a horse is not a home.

There are definitely some words missing on this page, from the beginning of the song :(

sounds like he's at a bar and hes quite intoxicated, still drinking even though hes feeling sick

the yellow horse is a yellow taxi cab, one is waiting outside (like taxis wait outside bars)

he rides home feeling heartbroken and sick, hoping it will be over soon.

hes remembering the night before he was drunk, possibly gate crashing a party and before he had messed his shirt and possibly remembering a girl he has just broken up with, remembering being home with her in bed and not in a smoky bar.

The lyrics to this song, as with so many rock/pop lyrics, is completely and utterly meaningless. It's merely a string of evocative sounding phrases. Not that there's anything necessarily wrong with that, but it's foolish to look deeply into it for meaning.
