Dead Horse Lyrics » Guns N Roses
[Intro]
Sick of this life, not that you’d care
I’m not the only one with whom, these feelings, I share
Nobody understands quite why we’re here
We’re searching for answers that never appear
Maybe if I looked real hard, I’d, I’d see you trying, too
To understand this life that we’re all going through
“Then when she said she was going to, like, wreck my car
I didn’t know what to do”
[Chorus]
Oh, sometimes, I feel like I’m beating a dead horse
And I don’t know why you’d be bringing me down
I’d like to think that our love’s worth a tad more
It may sound funny, but you’d think, by now, I’d be smiling
I guess some things never change
Oh, never change
[Verse]
I met an old cowboy, I saw the look in his eyes
Something tells me he’s been here before ’cause experience makes you wise
I was only a small child when the thought first came to me
That I’m a son of a gun and the gun of a son that brought back the devil in me
[Chorus]
Oh, but sometimes, I feel like I’m beating a dead horse
I don’t know why you’d be bringing me down
I’d like to think that our love’s worth a tad more
It may sound funny, but you’d think, by now, I’d be smiling
Yeah, I guess some things never change
Ooh, never change

About Guns N Roses’s Dead Horse from Use Your Illusion I (1991)
“Dead Horse” is the second to last track on
Use Your Illusion I
. Based on the expression
“beating a dead horse”
, the lyrics are about trying to rebuild yourself after a failed relationship. Rolling Stone
called it
a “frustration anthem”.
The composition starts and ends with an acoustic section, which features a guitar riff written by lead vocalist Axl Rose. According to Slash, the song pre-dates Guns N Roses:
There was also a sense of closet-cleaning about the
Illusion
records. Many of the albums’ songs had histories that stretched back years: “Dead Horse” was an old Axl tune…
The song was never released as a single commercially, but was
sent to radio stations
and a music video was made for it.
In 2019, the band performed the song live for the first time
in 26 years
.
