Shake The World
Motorhead渀 Lyrics

Save me from this cold embrace
I am trapped in a terrible situation and need someone's help to escape it.

Hide me from the man in black
I'm scared of someone who seeks to hurt me and need to be protected from them.

Take me from this dreadful place
I am in a terrible location that is causing me great distress and need to be rescued from it.

Save my life, I break your back
If you can rescue me from my current situation, I will do anything I can to help you in return.

Shake the world, I swear I know the world
I am confident that I understand the world and its problems.

And I know what it needs
I have a clear idea of what needs to be done to improve the state of the world.

I will make all hearts to break
My actions will cause great emotional pain to those around me.

I make all souls to bleed
My actions will cause great physical harm to those around me.

Save me from the dogs of war
I am trapped in a situation of conflict and violence and need to be rescued.

Roll away the door of stone
I need someone to remove a significant obstacle in my way that is preventing me from moving forward in life.

Raise me from the killing floor
I need someone to lift me up from a dire situation where my life is at risk.

Save myself I break your bones
If I am able to rescue myself, I will be willing to do whatever it takes to ensure your safety as well.

Will you break, will you deserve the love you take
Are you strong enough to endure the challenges of life and deserving of the rewards that come with it?

Can you survive the fall
Are you able to recover from a significant setback or failure?

Are you the one to save us
Are you the person who has the ability and motivation to rescue us from our troubles?

Or will you just enslave us
Are you more interested in using your power to control us and take advantage of us?

And will you face the Law?
Are you prepared to be held accountable for your actions and face the consequences if necessary?

Wake me from this dream of blood
I am caught up in a violent and dangerous situation and want to be awakened to reality.

Now before the murder starts
I am afraid that violence is about to break out and want to be rescued before it happens.

I would not help you if I could
If I had the power to help you, I wouldn't do it because of our conflict or lack of trust.

Save my head I break your heart
If you can rescue me from danger, I will be loyal to you and love you deeply in return.

Shake the world, I swear I hate the world
I am full of anger and resentment towards the state of the world and want to change it.

I smell its rotten breath
I detect the signs of decay and corruption in the world around me.

Blood and souls and mind control
The world is dominated by violence, oppression, and manipulation.

The world desires our death
The world is indifferent to our suffering and would rather see us dead or destroyed.

Shake the world, I swear I love the world
Despite my hatred for its current state, I have a deep love for the world and want to make it better.

The world know what I crave
The world has the potential to offer me what I desire, which is positive change and progress.

More confusion, abuse and disillusion
The world appears to actively work against my desires, causing me more confusion, harm, and disappointment.

The world defiles the brave
The world is not a place that rewards courage or bravery; instead, it corrupts and destroys those who stand up against it.
