Shake It Out

Glee Cast · Other Songs - Glee Cast

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



All of his questions, 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

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah

Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah



It's hard to dance

With a devil on your back

So shake him off, oh woah



And I am done with my graceless heart

So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart

'Cause I like to keep my issues drawn

It's always darkest before the dawn



Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah

Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah



It's hard to dance

With a devil on your back

So shake him off, oh woah



And it's hard to dance

With a devil on your back

And given half the chance



Would I take any of it back?

It's a final mess but it's left me so empty

It's always darkest before the dawn



Oh woah, oh woah



And I'm damned if I do



And 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



And I'm ready to hope



It's a shot in the dark



Aimed right at my throat



'Cause 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



Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out,



Oh woah

Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out,

Oh woah



It's hard to dance

With a devil on your back

So shake him off, oh woah



Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah

Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah



It's hard to dance

With a devil on your back

So shake him off, oh woah
