Shake it Off / Shake It Out by Evynne Hollens Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
And It's always darkest before the dawn
[Chorus]
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh whoa (shake him off)
[Verse 2]
I stay out too late
Got nothing in my brain
That's what people say, mmm, mmm
That's what people say, mmm, mmm
And I am done with my graceless heart
So tonight I'm going to cut it out and then restart
Because I like to keep my issues drawn
It's always darkest before the dawn
[Pre-Chorus]
But I keep cruisin'
Can't stop, won't stop movin'
It's like I got this music in my mind
Sayin' it's gonna be alright
[Chorus]
'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake it off, Shake it off, oh
[Bridge]
And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
So here's to the drinks in the dark at the end of the rope
And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
It's a shot in the dark aimed right at my throat
Because 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
[Chorus]
(Yeah)
'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake (Shake it off)
Shake it off, Shake it off, oh
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh whoa
[Chorus]
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa (Heartbreakers gonna break, break, break, break, break)
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa (And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake)
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back (Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake)
So shake him off, oh whoa (I shake it off, I shake it off)
Regrets collect like old friends

Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh whoa (shake him off)
