Farewell Ride Lyrics

Two white horses in a line carrying me to my burying
Ground some need diamonds some need love some need
Cards some need luck
Some need dollar bills lining their clothes
All I need is all I need is two white horses in a line taking
Me...

    This song is about a heroine addict who is conscious of his inevitable fate, should he continue to use, but the only thing he cares about/wants/needs is more heroine.

    Horse is a common referencefor heroine, not cocaine.

    In this song he is saying he is ready for death. Any day now may be his last. All he needs are lines of coke, He hopes he will overdoes. He's given up on everything else, love, possessions .... He doesn't care, he's ready to go.
