[Verse 1: Ulysses]
Deep in my cups and my whiskey
Sometimes the screaming will cease
Free-flowing tears fall unnoticed
Numbness my only release
Some soldiers will tell you that warfare
Is just one more title for Hell
I wonder if devils get nightmares
Of all of their victims as well
[Chorus: Ulysses]
Broken horses, staring and still
Broken horses, like all those I killed
Broken horses, riding me down
Broken horses
Broken horses
[Spoken Interlude: Jonny d'Ville]
See, Ulysses the drunk was once Ulysses the soldier, and a high-ranking one too. So it was they found themselves fighting at the siege of Ilium some twenty years ago. It was a brutal war of attrition against one of the best-defended districts of the city. A war that Ulysses the soldier was determined to win.
[Verse 2: Ulysses]
After a decade of fighting
Still their defences stood firm
Heartless and cunning and scheming
Victory I would confirm
Offering peace and departing
We honoured our valiant foes
A statue that I had designed them
Sending a message of hope
Deep in my cups and my whiskey
Sometimes the screaming will cease
Free-flowing tears fall unnoticed
Numbness my only release
Some soldiers will tell you that warfare
Is just one more title for Hell
I wonder if devils get nightmares
Of all of their victims as well
[Chorus: Ulysses]
Broken horses, staring and still
Broken horses, like all those I killed
Broken horses, riding me down
Broken horses
Broken horses
