Mine's Not a High Horse Lyrics
Artist(Band):The Shins
Review The Song (3)Print the Lyrics
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

You've got em all on your side
that just leads more from 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?

We'd like to go the distance
but not a one of us is gonna
you see nobody's wise enough to turn this ancient boat around
these are the muddy waters i'm swimming in
to make a living; that I might drown
in them should come as no surprise

You want 'em 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?

You've got them all on your side
that just leads more from 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?

Review about Mine's Not a High Horse

i think i know | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/6/2008

this is how i interpret this song:

this song is prolly about someone the singer knows, and likes. he is fond of them, yet he has gotten into a confrontation/argument with them(perhaps unintentionally) and realizes this person is very vain and not the person he originally met (or wanted them to be). still, everyone finds this person irresistable (as does the singer) even though this person thinks too highly of themself.

it's too hard for me to tell if the singer rejects this person or finds him too irresistable to deny. but i would guess the singer gets rid of this person, cause he says "dont ask for his opinion" he's evil and should be drowned in holy water. maybe he's jealous......



At least u speak english | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/6/2007

If you think that finding a meaning to the shin's lyrics is difficult, u don't know how difficult is for me, cause i barely speak english and i'm a great fan of The Shins (here, in argentina, almost nobody knows them). the only song i understood what is it about is "A call to apathy", cause is quite simple. the shins are one of the greatest bands standing. it's sad that nobody knows it here.
