High High Horse

I used to think about getting older

And how hard it had to be

But it never did occur to me

That when you start getting old

The world gets colder and colder

You can’t escape from the freeze

I used to think

Love never leaves but it does

And the world never learns and you live

And you keep love alive

What else is there to do but survive?

I used to think when I was younger

You had to win at all the games

But the results are still the same

And it will happen again

I had a plan

Stay on course, of course

High on my high high horse

Just further to fall, I guess

When you’re a total mess

High on my high high horse

I should have thought a little harder

Ooh, I should’ve planned a little better

For what would happen in the end

This can’t happen again

Not to all my friends

I might’ve known

Every day someone else

Makes their getaway

And you’re left with just a floating thought

And it’s all you got

And it’s all you got

And it’s all you got

I used to think about getting older

Not about the part they never told you

I used to think about getting older

And how hard it had to be

But that won’t happen to me

No, that won’t happen to me

Stick around and see

It won’t happen to me

I used to think about getting older

And how hard it had to be
