I can make you think you're a perfect 10. I can make you break out and make you wanna dive in. Your things will burn so bright you'll think the devil's right. Black magic lover, make you feel like no other. I can make you think you're a perfect 10. I can make you break out and make you wanna dive in. Your s*** will shine so bright, you'll think the devil's right.
2.
I've been loved, I've been f***ed. Traded my heart for a little bad luck. If rock 'n' roll can't save your soul and the enemies beneath you're feet. Then let me shake my a** til I pass out and drink your blood til the day we meet. She treats me like I've never been here before. My lover's glass is halfway full and my own speak to my back. If you're a cheat and a criminal then f***ing get down on your knees. I'll shake my head til I give up and let you walk all over me.
3.
This car is fast as hell, it's heaven bound. It'll get up and go and make you wanna get. It's tough on your eyes and worse on your heart. I'm a shotgun blast when you hear me start. Do this with me and never worry again. Let you struggles be our peace. Tell me the things you wanna hear me say. Sleep with me scars in your dreams.
4.
I'm sittin' on top of your road, think I'm going down. At times of lost love you sent me going down. I'm thinking about going down. Will she take, will she take the life of love and risk for all i ache? Will she take the name I gave? Will she trade it for the one they call the Hollywood heartbreak? I'm sittin' on top of your roof, think I'm going down Lower me into the Healer, don't you know your faith can be profound. I'm thinking I'm going down. I'm grabbing love by the tail, think I'm spinning around. At times of lost love you sent me going down. I'm thinking 'bout going down.
5.
Due to the weather, it's clear there's no chance for us. Babe, if I could feel (see) it getting better, you know i would not give up. There's rain all around. (last time) There's change all around Hallelujah.

about

Part 2 of "The Great State of Vandevander" EP Trilogy. This collection of songs was written about starting from the bottom, being the perfect candidate for recovery and trying to live in functioning expectations of productivity during the reality of depression, a survivalist mentality necessary during this time but for the main character inwardly known to be only temporary in the pursuit of fulfillment. Stage 2 of the grief cycle.
