You could tell a lot by the way that a man learns to win You could tell a lot by the way that he'll lose While it's easy to concern yourself with roosters and dogs It's easier to lose track of the truth And if the more that something hurts I guess the more that you really care But you won't know just how you'll act until you're there So come off your high horse You're like a plane off course And I really don't know what you're trying to achieve Looking for someone to blame Every time it starts to rain Tell me why do we destroy the things we need? But you probably don't see much upon that steed Your high horse Memories a liar and a thief That includes the one on me Even if we bite the hand that feeds, you know the fact remains That the problem with success Is it takes the best laid plans First it tests, then it makes such an a** of most men So come off your high horse You're making things much worse And I'm wondering if there's a cross that you won't climb on You're cutting down your friends Building a case against them Till I'm wondering now whose side it is that you're on But you probably won't see much from up upon Your high horse Nobody knows (nobody knows) Nobody knows behind closed doors Nobody knows (nobody knows) But one day you'll look in the mirror (you'll look in the mirror) And you'll come off your high horse Stop making things much worse Till I'm wondering just whose side it is that you're on Cause I was your friend you see You made a case against me It's a fool who don't know what he's got until it's gone But you probably won't see much from up upon Your high horse Yeah your high horse
