I posted this almost 2 years ago I think. This song will always make me stop dead in my tracks and be still and somberly listen. I've always thought of it as a song for women who are oppressed* in relationships. This is not my personal situation, but I know it is for countless many.
It's like a prayer.
All the wild horses
All the wild horses
Tethered with tears in their eyes
May no man's touch ever tame
May no man's reigns ever chain you
And may no man's weight ever defrayed your soul

Just let them roll
Roll away
Roll away
As for the clouds
Just let them roll
Roll away
Roll away
