Shake the Disease (Edit the Shake)

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Here is a plea from my heart to you
Nobody knows me as well as you do
You know how hard it is for me to shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue in situations like these

[Post-Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Understand me, understand me
Understand me, understand me

[Verse: Dave Gahan]
I'm not going down on my knees, begging you to adore me
Can't you see it's misery and torture for me?
When I'm misunderstood
Try as hard as you can, I've tried as hard as I could
To make you see
How important it is for me

[Interlude]

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Here is a plea from my heart to you
Nobody knows me as well as you do
You know how hard it is for me to shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue in situations like these

[Post-Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Understand me, understand me
Understand me, understand me

[Interlude]

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Here is a plea from my heart to you
Nobody knows me as well as you do
You know how hard it is for me to shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue in situations like these

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Here is a plea from my heart to you
Nobody knows me as well as you do
You know how hard it is for me to shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue in situations like these

[Interlude]

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Here is a plea from my heart to you
Nobody knows me as well as you do
You know how hard it is for me to shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue in situations like these
