Lyrics
Nicotine chain wrapped around my brain
I never want to see another sunrise again
Walkin' down streets that were busy before
Light turns green, No cars, so what for?
If a tree falls down would I hear it at all?
It seems I'm deafer than I thought I never heard your call
Screamin', screamin' in my ear
Took a whack at a fly and a hit of my beer
I guess I got what I deserved but no second chance
I know I'm hard but that's a pretty tough stance
Into the night and out in the street
Watchin' myself movin' endlessly
After a while, feelin' Sorry for myself
Wishin' that I was somewhere else
But I know that there's no easy escape
From my damn heart that had to break
Chorus:
Shake it Shake it Shake it off
You can control how you feel
You don't feel it at all
Move and move and move and move on
Don't get dragged down
You're so above it all
Above it all
I am rock, a desert Isle
I don't need anyone to carry on with style
Young and Free and what do I care?
Life is a circus, carnival affair
Hippin' Hoppin' down the street
Doin' my best to stay light on my feet
But I just can't shake that heavy heart
Oh God I need a brand new start
I don't want to pack it in, give up hope
But you left me pretty black, feelin' out o' hope
I'm pretty good at goin' if the direction's clear
But I'm now without a rudder and I just can't steer
In another time, in another place
I'd be on top of the world, it's a damn disgrace
But I just gotta dig deep for that part of me
That'll keep me goin' and set me free
