Shake it out

Regrets collect like old friendsHere to relive your darkest momentsI can see no way, I can see no way

And all of the ghouls come out to playAnd every demon wants his pound of fleshBut I like to keep some things to myselfI like to keep my issues drawnIt's always darkest before the dawn

And I've been a fool and I've been blindI can never leave the past behindI can see no way, I can see no way

I'm always dragging that horse aroundAll of these questionsSuch a mournful soundTonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the groundSo I like to keep my issues drawnBut it's always darkest before the dawn

(Chorus)Shake it out, shake it outShake it out, shake it outOoh woaaahShake it out, shake it outShake it out, shake it outOoh woaaahAnd it's hard to danceWith a devil on your backSo shake him off, oh woah

I am done with my graceless heartSo tonight I'm gonna cut it outAnd then restart'Cause I like to keep my issues drawnIt's always darkest before the dawn

(Chorus)

And it's hard to danceWith a devil on your backGiven half the chanceWould I take any of it back?It's a fine romanceBut it's left me so undoneIt's always darkest before the dawn

Oh woah, oh woah

And I'm damned if I doAnd I'm damned if I don'tSo here's to drinks in the darkAt the end of my roadAnd I'm ready to sufferAnd I'm ready to hopeIt's a shot in the darkAnd right at my throat'Cause looking for heavenFound a devil in meLooking for heavenFound a devil in meWell, what the hellI'm gonna let it happen to me

(Chorus x2)
