Regrets collect like old friends Here to relive your darkest moments I can see no way, I can see no end And all of the goons come out to play And every demon wants his pound of flesh But I'd like to keep some things to myself I'd like to keep my issues strong 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 end I'm always dragging that horse around All of his questions such a mournful song Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground I'd like to keep my issues strong It's always darkest before the dawn Shake it up, shake it up, shake it up, shake it up, oh oh And it's hard to dance with the devil on your back So shake him up, oh oh And I am done with my graceless heart So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart Cause I'd like to keep my issues strong It's always darkest before the dawn Shake it up, shake it up, shake it up, shake it up, oh oh And it's hard to dance with the devil on your back So shake him up, oh oh And it's hard to dance with the devil on your back I'd give it half the chance would I take any of it back It's a fine romance but it's left me so undone It's always darkest before the dawn 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 and right up my throat Cause looking for heaven found a devil in me Looking for heaven found a devil in me But why the hell I'm gonna let it happen to me Shake it up, shake it up, shake it up, shake it up, oh oh And it's hard to dance with the devil on your back So shake him up, oh oh Shake it up, shake it up, shake it up, shake it up, oh oh And it's hard to dance with the devil on your back So shake him up, oh oh Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh
