Lyrics

Shook Down

To collapse in a sugar cane
Suck it sweet to kill the pain
There was someone I was looking for
There is no more

My tongue is weak from a kick or two
The word is dry, I think of you
Tie my face to the back of a jet
To keep my essence there

And it's been a week
And it's been a week too long
There were several things
That I've been doing wrong

You see the time it takes for you
Is the time it takes for me
Oh, so don't agree

If it's late then I will go
Turn the lights out, turn it slow
Like you turned me upside down
And faced the ground

Spinning left, I spin at you
Listen girl, I think of you
Back up by the back of the chair
I left you there

It is been a week
It's been a week too long
There were several things
That I've been doing wrong

You see the time it takes for you
Is the time it takes for me
Oh, so don't agree

You could be my destiny
You can mean that much to me
You could be my destiny
You can mean that much to me

You could be my destiny
You can mean that much to me
You could be my destiny
You can mean that much to me

You could be my destiny
