Lyric discussion by bloc_party15 

the kickstart a dead horse line is like the phrase 'flogging a dead horse' you just can't do it, so its saying stop trying to do impossible things. The song sounds like its saying, im right you're wrong

i think the impossible things he's saying not to try is to change. change from what we are, wich is lost, crooked, to something better.

thanks bloc party15 i wish i had known that about the kicking the dead horse a year a go because i have been kicking my dam dead horse for long time, but i said to him. Pie! get the hell up lets win this race and so it was, Pie and I had gone and won the National Grand.

The raw mening simply stuck in rut one can get a relationship to go any were to kick dead horse.
