Dead Horse

Sick of this life, not that you'd care

I'm not the only one with whom these feelings I share

Nobody understands quite why we're here

We're searching for answers that never appear

Maybe if I looked real hard, I'd, I'd see you're trying too

To understand this life that we're all going through

Sometimes I feel like I'm beating a dead horse

And I don't know why you'd be bringing me down

I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more

It may sound funny, but you'd think by now I'd be smiling

I guess some things never change

Never change

I met an old cowboy, I saw the look in his eyes

Something tells me he's been here

Before 'cause experience makes you wise

I was only a small child when the thought first came to me

That I'm the son of a gun and the gun of

A son that brought back the devil in me

Sometimes I feel like I'm beating a dead horse

And I don't know why you'd be bringing me down

I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more

It may sound funny, but you'd think by now I'd be smiling

I guess some things never change

Never change

I ain't quite what you'd call an old soul

Still wet behind the ears

I've been around this track a couple of times

But now the dust is starting to clear

Sometimes I feel like I'm beating a dead horse

And I don't know why you'd be bringing me down

I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more

It may sound funny, but you'd think by now I'd be smiling

Yeah, I'd be smiling

Yeah, I'd be smiling

Sick of this life, but not that you'd care

I'm not the only one with whom these feelings I share

Yeah, I'd be smiling

Ooh, I'd be smiling

Smiling

Oh yeah, I'd be smiling

Mmm, yeah
