Iron & Wine – He Lays in the Reins Lyrics | 17 years ago |
This song is about a break up. The narrator symbolizes himself as a horse. Beaten down by the relationship. He is the grey stallion that the woman, the narrator's lover, is tangling and tightening. Sam Beam's drinking to rest up from the strains of a relationship. He wants out here and there because of how hard it is and regrets it when it happens to break. They're both broken. It's so tragic. |
