Never Any Horses

[Verse 1]
A picture of a covered bridge in the kitchen where your cousin lives
Some stables on some acreage, I swore we rode some horses
But she claims that isn't how it went, she said I mostly sweat the bed
Dripping wet with doom and death, disheveled and disinterested
She said I was embarrassing that they billed her for my damages
Put my fist right through the fish tank, cut the curtains into bandages, man

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I admit that's probably possible
There were years where I was feverish
The history's rewritten
When the memories get meddled with

[Chorus 1]
The way that I remember it
There were saddle sores and bridle straps
Might've been another man
There might've been some overlap
The guests were gathered 'round the feast
The servants set the table
The caterers were new wave
And the cooks were all nü-metal
That’s how I remember it

[Verse 2]
Some discolored Polaroid fell out of a paperback
I look wild, you look annoyed, you ended it just after that
So sorry if I called too late, just trying to get my story straight
You said that's just not the way it went, somehow you got it twisted, kid

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I admit it's probably plausible
That I'm way too sentimental
On the last limb of a family tree
With a legacy of rentals

[Chorus 2]
She said my cousin had a surgery
They pulled out some impacted teeth
We went up to help her convalesce
She said she'd share her pain relief
Watched movies in her living room
Gatsby and some Westerns
Her boy stopped in after his shift
In some kitchen at some restaurant
Vietnamese delivery
After-dinner dancing
You fell into the fish tank
You bled all over everything

[Outro]
Said the way that you remember it
Somehow got distorted
There were never any caterers
There were never any horses
There was never any acreage
There were never any horses
There were never any caterers
There were never any horses
