Eric Bettencourt - Shake Us Off Lyrics




Can you hear the dam breathing?
Fissures reaching out like lightening
Have you any sense of what we've done?
We haven't left a single place to run

Can you feel the ground move underneath your feet?
Can you see the storm clouds gathering?
Feel the stillness before the storm
Lets take it all in before it's gone

Ill hold you like we were dying
Or a baby fresh from the womb
All around us the pieces are flying
All around us the end is in bloom

And I'll hold you like we were living
In hell's darkest ravine
While we watch our mother dismantle
The last of the American dream
It's the last of the American dream

She's gonna shake us off
Oh She's gonna shake us off

We used to laugh at the warnings
Now we've all seen it crumbling
We laughed because we knew all we needed to learn
Pull up a chair, sit back let's watch it burn

All of your life you've been lied to
The sirens all sang in tune
Through the ash and the smoke you'll find something
But it will never be what we once knew

And we'll hold on like we had stopped trying
As we slowly melt back into the void
Maybe then we will notice
That there's nothing left to destroy
That there's nothing left to destroy

She's gonna wake up Man, She's gonna wake up and She's gonna shake us off
Oh she's gonna wake, She's gonna wake up and She's gonna shake us off
Oh she's gonna wake, She's gonna wake up and She's gonna shake us off
She's gonna wake up Man, She's gonna wake up and She's gonna shake us off
