Discover the story of the song > 13 Horses – Alexander Rybak

There are 13 horses who are stuck swimming in the sea, waiting for someone to help them. Their ship sank and now they are alone. The men who were on the ship were saved, but the horses are still waiting. They don't realize that it's pointless because they're going to die. There are a couple of horses who are far behind and will soon be out of sight. But it doesn't really matter because all of the horses are going to die. Some horses keep swimming, even though they're tired and in pain. They want to live, but they're scared. There are 7 horses struggling in the sea and they are crying for help, but there is no one to help them. They don't know where to go or what they're swimming away from. They keep swimming, but it's only in their heads. The last 3 horses are dying in the sea and no one can hear their cries. They are fighting to stay alive, but they know they are going to die. The sun is out and everything seems nice, but one horse is still swimming. He has always been the best and his owner will be proud. But now he just wants to rest and go home. The girl who takes care of him will give him food and they will play together. Soon, all 13 horses will be gone forever. But there is still hope that never dies.
