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 trying too

To understand this life that we're all going through

Then, when she said she was going to, like, wreck my car

I didn't know what to do

Oh, 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

Oh, 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 a son of a gun, and the gun of a son that

Brought back the devil in me

Oh, but sometimes, I feel like I'm beating a dead horse

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 guess some things never change

Ooh, never change

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

Still, wet behind the years

I've been around this track a couple of times

But now the dust is starting to clear, oh, yeah

Sometimes, I feel like I'm beating a dead horse

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

Ooh, yeah, I'd be smiling

No way I'd be smiling

Ooh, smiling

Sick of this life, not that you'd care

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