歌詞大意
Regrets collect like old friends
悔恨如故友般再次相聚
Here to relieve your darkest moments
重溫最黑暗的時刻
I can see no way, I can see no way
無路可逃,無處可躲
And all of the ghouls come out to play
所有鬼魅都傾巢而出
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
惡魔渴望著啖食血肉
But I like to keep some things to myself
但我要為自己有所保留
I like to keep my issues strong

It's always darkest before the dawn
在黎明到來之際黑夜依舊
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
而我是個傻瓜,似個盲目者
I can never leave the past behind
無法將過去種種釋懷
I can see no way, I can see no way
無路可逃,無處可躲
I'm always dragging that horse around
我總是拖著過去艱難行走
All of these questions, such a mournful sound
所有的問題都像一句悲鳴
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground

'Cause I like to keep my issues strong
因為我想要堅定著自己的意志
But it's always darkest before the dawn
但在破曉之前黑夜仍在
Shake it out, shake it out
甩下負擔,拋下重任
Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
盡情擺動,釋放靈魂
Shake it out, shake it out
甩下負擔,拋下重任
Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
盡情擺動,釋放靈魂
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
當惡魔站在身後便難以起舞
So shake him off, oh woah

And I am done with my graceless heart
我受夠了自己邪惡的心靈
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart

And given half the chance, would I take any of it back?
即使被賦予渺茫的機會,我還能挽回一絲一毫嗎
It's a fine romance but it's left me so undone
這是一段美好的浪漫史,卻讓我如此的絕望
It's always darkest before the dawn
晨明之前黑夜尚在
Oh woah, oh woah
And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
不管我做不做我都會跌入地獄
So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my rope
所以在黑暗中喝酒,在我窮途末路之時
And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
我已做好受難與盼望的準備
It's a shot in the dark aimed right at my throat
這是黑暗中的一槍,正好對著我的喉嚨
'Cause looking for heaven, found a devil in me
因為尋找天堂,在我身上發現了惡魔
Looking for heaven, found a devil in me
尋找天堂,在我身上發現了惡魔
But what the hell, I'm gonna let it happen to me
但那又如何,我仍會讓它發生在我身上
Shake it out, shake it out
甩下負擔,拋下重任
Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
盡情擺動,釋放靈魂
Shake it out, shake it out
甩下負擔,拋下重任
Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
盡情擺動,釋放靈魂
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
