Cage the Elephant – Shake Me Down Lyrics 13 years ago
I beg to disagree that it's obviously about drug addiction. It's about alienation and loneliness. Second line of the song. Not a lot of people left around... then he talks about no love between the sheets. It's about his isolation, which may have come from his drug addiction, but you guys are reading too far into it. I do agree that it's a beautiful and uplifting song, but remember inspiration comes from places other than personal experience.
