DEAD HORSE
(lyrics written & sang by J. MASSEY)

Well I take it you don't understand
You're just not part of the plan
Why do you stand in the way?
You're a bump in the road with nothing good to ever say
No more dragging you 'round
One day I'm a man, the next you're calling me a clown
Take your crying and get out of this town
I'm standing on a mountain and never coming down

   You're a Dead Horse to me
            Yeah, you're out of the family
   You're a Dead Horse to me
            and the path that you walk is
                green from jealousy

Love is not an ultimatum
You love 'em to death, you eat 'em up and then you hate 'em
Sorry that I won't plant your seed
Now get on your way I got my own mouth to feed

   You're a Dead Horse to me
            Yeah, you're out of the family
   You're a Dead Horse to me
            and the path that you walk is
                green from jealousy

Someday you'll be coming around
Crying and begging with your knees on the ground
I am not a stranger to lies
But I ain't gonna bend, no there ain't no compromise
Say what you will and call me mean
You were the one that was standing on my dreams
I'm taking my grudge to the grave
Now get out of my sight and back into your cave

   You're a Dead Horse to me
            Yeah, you're out of the family
   You're a Dead Horse to me
            and the path that you walk is
                green from jealousy
