Mine's not a High Horse

The Shins

Transposer:

After that confrontation you left me wringing my cold hands we shared some information we might not recover from   and I'll 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 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 ? We'd like to go the distance but not a one of us is going to you see no one is wise enough to turn the ancient boat around these are the muddy waters I am swimming in to make a living were I to drown in them it should come as no surprise You've got them all on your side that just makes more for doubt to slaughter "I never know 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 ?

La chanson évoque une confrontation qui laisse des traces, une tension palpable entre deux personnes. On sent un mélange de doute et d'incertitude à propos des convictions de l'autre, qui semblent fragiles, comme de la glace fondant dans la mer. L'auteur fait référence à des jugements hâtifs et à une difficulté à se comprendre, tout en soulignant que ces désaccords peuvent mener à des divisions encore plus profondes. Dans ce contexte, l'idée d'un "cheval hautain" apparaît, symbolisant l'orgueil et les certitudes mal placées. Il s'agit d'une réflexion sur la difficulté de dialoguer et d'accepter les opinions divergentes dans une relation, tout en laissant entendre que ces tensions peuvent être fatales si l'on n'y prend pas garde.
