Effie Liu - Shakedown lyrics

[Verse 1] Say that you a-need me and you're scared of me a-leavin And that is the meaning behind closing in Say you never deceive me and you hold onto me dearly And that is reason that you're always watching [Pre-Chorus] Don't you know the walls you built you made so high Center of a hurricane, down on a burning plane The lies they rot, from the inside Someone read between the lines [Chorus] I am just a prisoner Captive of the good times Until the sun comes around Your mistakes, they are found In the daylight Don't tell me tomorrow You're sorry for your crimes There's a new sheriff in town Your regime, I shakedown This is goodbye [Verse 2] Play that you're so angry and you swear that's how you love me But inside you're filling up with poison envy Play like you're so charming but you come off quite alarming And the cycle continues, my mind it keeps on spinning [Pre-Chorus] Don't you know the walls you built you made so high Center of a hurricane, down on a burning plane The lies they rot, from the inside Someone read between the lines [Chorus] I am just a prisoner Captive of the good times Until the sun comes around Your mistakes, they are found In the daylight Don't tell me tomorrow You're sorry for your crimes There's a new sheriff in town Your regime, I shakedown This is goodbye [Bridge] Shake Down Shake Down I gotta leave, you keep the keys Im cutting the tether Now i can breathe, roll down my sleeve Things will get better Cause we all know Where this will go If i stay any longer So glad that I woke up Cause I know I don't belong here [Chorus] I am just a prisoner Captive of the good times Until the sun comes around Your mistakes, they are found In the daylight Don't tell me tomorrow You're sorry for your crimes There's a new sheriff in town Your regime, I shakedown This is goodbye
