lyrics

From atop your high horse you were taken for a ride
Couldn't quite choke down your wounded pride
From atop the mountain the sky echoed with the call
The highest climb proceeds the longest fall

From the safety of numbers
You were leader of the pack
The first to jump the cliff, the last to laugh
You brushed the dust off, cleaned the dirt out of your wounds
Determined that something would give out soon

[CHORUS]
You lost your head
Standing there with arms extended
You broke my heart again
You and your red cardigan

Left to our own devices, and finding that ok
Turns out my only vice is, never really knowing what to say
The price was right
The moment wrong
Existing in a place we don't belong

Present company excepted
Presently we share this broken ice
Yearning to be accepted
Rejection cuts you like a knife
Cast out alone and wretched
Betcha didn't know that there'd be days that felt like you were shrinking
Left along and quickly sinking

No. Ex. Cuse. Es.
It was not meant to be
That. Night. Produces.
Such pain inside of me

Nooooooo quarter asked
No mercy given
Slowwwwwww poison coats
The pill that we've been given

You're wicked bargain
You drive a hard 'one
Can't wait to start again
You and your cardigan
