    Florence + The Machine - Shake It Out (Lyrics)
    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
    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 way
    I'm always dragging that horse around
    All of his questions, such a mournful sound
    Tonight, I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
    'Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
    But it's always darkest before the dawn
    Shake it out, shake it out
    Shake it out, shake it out, oh-woah
    Shake it out, shake it out
    Shake it out, shake it out, oh-woah
    And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
    So shake him off, oh-woah
    And I am done with my graceless heart
    So tonight, I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
    'Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
    It's always darkest before the dawn
    Shake it out, shake it out
    Shake it out, shake it out, oh-woah
    Shake it out, shake it out
    Shake it out, shake it out, oh-woah
    And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
    So shake him off, oh-woah (Shake him off)
    And it's hard to dance
    With a devil on your back (Shake him off)
    And given half the chance
    Would I take any of it back? (Shake him off)
    It's a fine romance
    But it's left me so undone (Shake him off)
    It's always darkest before the dawn (Shake him off)
    (Oh-woah)
    (Oh-woah)
    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 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
    'Cause looking for Heaven, found the devil in me (Oh-woah)
    Looking for Heaven, found the devil in me (Oh-woah)
    But, what the hell, I'm gonna let it happen to me, yeah
    Shake it out, shake it out
    Shake it out, shake it out, oh-woah
    Shake it out, shake it out
    Shake it out, shake it out, oh-woah
    And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
    So shake him off, oh-woah
    Shake it out, shake it out
    Shake it out, shake it out, oh-woah
    Shake it out, shake it out
    Shake it out, shake it out, oh-woah
    And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
    So shake him off, oh-woah

Best way to reclaim your agency is to give none to the abuser and keep moving forward. Hugs and love from Michigan.

    Heartly regards and all the best to all of you fighters.

This last time around I was in bad head space, only few weeks clean, n feeling hopeless . This song came on radio and I got goosebumps over my entire body & cried like a baby. That was 3 yrs ago. Still sober and thriving. And still get goosebumps when I listen to it. Thank u

    TRUE STORY: I was in human trafficking as a young teen in the Midwest when I first heard this song and It pushed me to stay strong and survive. I use to lie awake every night listening to it knowing I would one day eventually get out of it, if I kept pushing and continued to see the light at the end of that dark dark tunnel. 5 years later I’m 18 and the men who sexually abused me are in prison, my family is united and better than ever, and I’m safe and healthy! When I get down I reflect back on this song and what it means to me. Thank you Florence for creating a song so meaningful for all of the listeners. I hope one day I can be the gift you were for me to someone else going through darkness. GOD BLESS YOU ❤️

    It's funny. I heard this song when I was in like high school. I used to sing along to it, all happy-go-lucky, not paying much attention to the actual meaning of the song. I was listening to it just now, with a huge smile on my face. Then out of nowhere, I just broke into tears. Just a total flood of tears. Why? Well, ever since I entered college, my life just took a total 180. I am suffering with many different mental health issues. When you're sad for so long, you become filled with anger and guilt. And I am totally wasting my younger years, grieving that I am growing up, and not even enjoying anything while it's still here. I feel so stuck in my sorrow, but I do remember years ago, when I was happy. I remember I saw the world in a brighter way. Now, I am starting to see that I am actually growing, and I can feel happiness around the corner. I just need to fight for my future self. I need to put in the work to healing and forgiving myself. I have to let go of the past. The song hit me hard now. It speaks to my soul. It is everything I feel. It's like Florence is trying to say "It's ok. Me too... It's going to be okay."

    True story: This song means so much to me. When I began struggling with OCD, social anxiety and coming to terms with the fact I was gay while attending middle school in the deep south, this song came out. It was perfect timing, I was going through it and this song carried me through. I've listened to this song probably a thousand times at least. I used to listen to it every single morning before school. I still get chills listening to it. I came out to my mom drunk in London last summer and she took it so well and just made me promise if I met a man I would introduce him to her. It was so liberating. Fast forward a few months... So I was in Tijuana Mexico at this bar really drunk and paid the guy controlling the music $4 to play this song. Everybody there was surprised because it was so different than the music that had been playing (in Spanish). I just started dancing alongside everyone, and it was really this moment of release of pent up emotions and acceptance. This will always be my theme song. Thank you, Florence.

    During the last few months of my cancer treatments, I got so down. I felt like I'd never get through radiation and reconstruction. My mom kept telling me, "It's always darkest before the dawn." And of course, this song came to mind. It was really true, it got so dark by the end of the treatments, but today I'm healthy and happier. For me it did get better, but I'm also thankful that I had people to reach out to and encourage me.
    On a side note, I love that this song was in How I Met Your Mother! Yellow umbrellas galore!

    This is for all my followers. No matter how tough life gets, you all matter. You are loved. We all have demons inside, some battle them everyday, some rise on a certain occasion but together, we can bury them in the ground. I love you all and if you ever need to talk or anything I will always be here.
    Stay strong. Be strong. You're all beautiful, unique and amazing people. God bless.

    This song is absolutely, definitely, getting played at my funeral. I want my final message to the world to be what this song expertly conveys. Don't let the darkness consume your soul, fight it with every last ounce of your inner strength, for you can only experience life the way it was intended if you find a way, literally any method possible, to shake it all off...
