Regrets collect like old friends
here to relive your darkest moments
I can see no way
I can see no way
And all of the ghouls come out to play
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
But I like to keep some things to myself
I like to keep my issues drawn it's always darkest before the dawn
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way I can see no way
I'm always dragging that horse around
And our love is pastured such a mournful sound
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
So I like to keep my issues drawn
But it's always darkest before the dawn
Shake it out
Shake it out Ooh whoah oh
Shake it out Shake it out
Shake it out Shake it out
Ooh whoah oh And it's hard to dance
With a devil on your back So shake him off
Oo whoah
'Cos I am done with my grace less heart
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
I like to keep my issues drawn
It's always darkest before the dawn,
ooh oh oh
Shake it out
Shake it out Shake it out Shake it out
Ooh whoah oh
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off Oo whoah
So shake it out
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
Given half the chance would I take any of it back
It's a fine romance but it's left me so undone
It's always darkest before the dawn
Ooh whoah oh Ooh whoah oh
And I'm damned if I do I'm damned
if I don't
So here's to drinks in the dark
at the end of my road
And I'm ready to suffer
I'm ready to hope
It's a shot in the dark and it's right at my throat
'Cos looking for heaven found the devil in me
Looking for heaven found the devil in me
Well what the hell I'm gonna let it happen to me, yea yeah yeah
So shake him off, oh woah oh
Shake it out Shake it out
Shake it out Shake it out
Ooh whoah oh Shake it out
Shake it out Shake it out
Shake it out Ooh whoah oh
And it's hard to dance
With a devil on your back
So shake him off
Oo whoah
Hey, oh hey hey oh oh hey, hey
Woah ooh woah ooh woah ooh woah
ooh woah ooh woah ooh Woah ooh woah ooh woah ooh
woah ooh woah ooh woah ooh ooh Woah
ooh woah ooh woah ooh woah ooh woah
ooh woah ooh Woah ooh woah ooh
woah ooh woah ooh woah
ooh woah ooh ooh
