Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Pull the cotton out of your ears
Listen here
You ain't got control of this, no
Same old patterns, same old high horse
But the saddle's riding sideways
[Chorus]
What's it gonna take to shake ya
And leave it behind?
What's it gonna take to shake the ill times?
What's it gonna take to shake ya
And leave it behind?
What's it gonna take to shake the ill times?
[Verse 2]
Quitters never win, and winners never quit
Don't spit the dummy, flip the script
You say a little pill ain't gonna take the pain away
It's the least that you can do to turn the page
[Chorus]
What's it gonna take to shake ya
And leave it behind?
What's it gonna take to shake the ill times?
What's it gonna take to shake ya
And leave it behind?
What's it gonna take to shake the ill times?
[Bridge]
I'm tired of picking sides, I wanna cry
Can't you see she's crumbling?
Can't you see she's wondering why?
All these years we've grown despondent
The emperor's new clothes are showing
Blind eyes
We see no, hear no, speak no evil
Keeling over into fetal
[Chorus]
What's it gonna take to shake ya
And leave it behind?
What's it gonna take to shake the ill times?
What's it gonna take to shake ya
And leave it behind?
What's it gonna take to shake the ill times?
[Outro]
What's it gonna take to shake ya?
