shake me down

Cage The Elephant

Shake me down,
Not a lot of people left around,
Who knows now,
Softly laying on the ground, ooooh
Not a lot people left around, ooooh, ooooh...

In my life, I have 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 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 its 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,
Even on a cloudy day...(3x)

Even on a cloudy day,
I'll keep my eyes fixed on the...(2x)

I'll keep my eyes fixed on the sun...

Shake me down,
Not a lot of people left around, ooooh, ooooh...
