Lyrics
0:02Regrets collect like old friends
0:07Here to relive your darkest moments
0:11I can see no way I can see no way
0:15And all of the ghouls come out to play
0:20And every demon wants his pound of flesh
0:24But I like to keep some things to myself
0:29I like to keep my issues drawn
0:33It's always darkest before the dawn
0:37And I've been a fool and I've been blind
0:42I can never leave the past behind
0:46I can see no way I can see no way
0:51I'm always dragging that horse around
0:56All of his questions such a mournful sound
1:00Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
1:04'Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
1:09But it's always darkest before the dawn
1:12Shake it out shake it out
1:14Shake it out shake it out oh-woah
1:17Shake it out shake it out
1:19Shake it out shake it out oh-woah
1:22And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
1:25So shake him off oh-woah
1:31And I am done with my graceless heart
1:36So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
1:40'Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
1:45It's always darkest before the dawn
1:48Shake it out shake it out
1:50Shake it out shake it out oh-woah
1:53Shake it out shake it out
1:55Shake it out shake it out oh-woah
1:57And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
2:01So shake him off oh-woah
2:06Shake him off
2:06And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
2:10Shake him off
2:11And given half the chance
2:12Would I take any of it back
2:15Shake him off
2:15It's a fine romance but it's left me so undone
2:19Shake him off
2:20It's always darkest before the dawn
2:25Oh-woah
2:30Oh-woah
2:33And I'm d**ned if I do and I'm d**ned if I don't
2:37So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my rope
2:42And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
2:46It's a shot in the dark aimed right at my throat
2:50'Cause looking for Heaven found the devil in me
2:54Oh-woah
2:55Looking for Heaven found the devil in me
2:59Oh-woah
2:59But what the hell I'm gonna let it happen to me yeah
3:09Shake it out shake it out
3:10Shake it out shake it out oh-woah
3:13Shake it out shake it out
3:15Shake it out shake it out oh-woah
3:18And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
3:21So shake him off oh-woah
3:27Shake it out shake it out
3:28Shake it out shake it out oh-woah
3:31Shake it out shake it out
3:33Shake it out shake it out oh-woah
3:36And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
3:39So shake him off oh-woah
