Mine's Not A High Horse

The Shins

After that confontation you left me wringing my cold hands

we shared some information we might not recover from

will I watch you convictions melt like ice cubes in an ocean

you were so poorly cast as this malcontent



You've got them all on your side

that just makes more for doubt to slauggter

"I never knew he thought that!"

I heard you say, falling out of the van

"Don't ask for his opinion, the ought to drown him in holy water"

Will you remember my reply when your high horse dies?



We'd like to go the distance but not one of us is going to

You see no one is wise enough to turn this ancient boat around

these are muddy waters I am swimming in to make a living

were I to drown in them it should come as no suprise



You want them all on your side

that just makes more for doubt to slaughter

"I never knew he thought that!"

I heard you say, falling out of the van

"Don't ask for his opinion, they ought to drown him in holy water"

Will you remember my reply when your high horse dies?
