Cage The Elephant - Shake

Me Down Lyrics


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 walk into 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,
Even on a cloudy day,
Even on a cloudy day,
Even on a cloudy day,
Even on a cloudy day,
Even on a cloudy day,

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

    Just keep your eyes fixed on the sun. Then you'll become blind and it won't matter.

    Only one complaint... and it's not with the song.

    When doing a Lyrics Video one should really LEAD the audio with the Words... helps people learn the song to sing along instead of getting confused waiting on lyrics while the audio is already there.

    This song may depress others, but it actually gets me pretty amped. It's like, "Yeah, shit's going down, but shit's been worse. I'm good actually, fuck this, I'll be fine no matter what cause I'm a boss."

    Watch the music video. I feel it expresses what they meant pretty well. They aren't like the Mars Volta who purposely make meaningless songs haha :P
