Shake Me Down - Cage The Elephant

Shake me down

Not a lot of people left around

Who knows now

Softly laying on the ground, oooh

Not a lot of people left around, oooh

Oh In my life I’ve seen

People walking to the sea

Just to find memories

Plagued by constant misery

Their eyes cast down

Fixed upon the ground

Their eyes cast down

I’ll keep my eyes fixed on the sun

Shake me down

Cut my hair on a silver cloud

Broken sound

Softly laying on the ground, ooooh

Not a lot of people left around, ooooh

Ooooh

In my past, bittersweet

There’s no love between the sheets

Taste the blood, broken dreams

Lonely times indeed

With eyes cast down

Fixed upon the ground

Eyes cast down

I’ll keep my eyes fixed on the sun

Turn back now it’s time for me to let go Way down had to find a place to lay low

Lampshade turned around into a light post

Walk around the corner

Never saw it coming still

I try to make a move

It almost stopped me from belief

I don’t wanna know the future

But I’m like rolling thunder

Even on a cloudy day (repeat seven times)

I’ll keep my eyes fixed on the-

I’ll keep my eyes fixed on the-

I’ll keep my eyes fixed on the sun

Shake me down

Not a lot of people left around, Ooooh

Ooooh.
