Shake It Out (Live) (MTV Unplugged, 2012)

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'd 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
'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
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake it out, oh-woah

And I am done with my graceless heart
Tonight, I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
'Cause I like to keep my issues strong
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 (before the dawn)
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake it out, oh-woah (shake it out)

And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back (shake it out)
And given half the chance, would I take any of it back (shake it out)
It's a fine romance, but it's left me so undone (shake it out)
It's always darkest before the dawn (shake it out)
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 up my throat
'Cause looking for Heaven, found the devil in me (oh-woah)
Looking for Heaven, found the devil in me (oh-woah)
But, 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
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake it out, 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
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake it out, oh-woah

But what the hell
What the hell
What the hell
What the hell
