Mine's Not a High Horse

[Verse 1] After that confrontation You left me wringing my cold hands We shared some information We might not recover from And I watch your convictions Melt like ice cubes in an ocean You were so poorly cast as a malcontent [Chorus] "You've got 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? [Verse 2] We'd like to go the distance But not a one of us is going You see nobody is wise enough To turn the ancient boat around These are the muddy waters I'm swimming in to make a living Were I to drown in them It should come as no surprise [Chorus] 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 died? [Chorus] You've got 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 One finger parallel to the sky?
