It’s #MusicMonday and I’ve been doing dayjob work non-stop since last week (literally, did it all weekend as well and flew to Atlanta yesterday for more work stuff) and so I’ve barely come up for air. The only good news is that whether I’m doing day job work or authory work, I’m always listening to music, and I listened to ‘Two Shots’ by Cross My Heart Hope To Die (yes, that is the band name) and remembered just how much I like this song. The whole of it is just fantastic. Feisty, fun lyrics that remind me of Camille from my Dangerous Games series, a great beat, fun rhythms, and overall just a blast to listen to. I hope all of you enjoy it too, and I promise I’ll be around more later this week. <3 <3

Favorite Lyrics

Yeah,
See me, I be all I want to be.
You, fuck you, take it all from me.
Abuse, you do, do it all to me,
do it all to me, give it to me.
You see, I’m free
you ain’t running me.
You lose, no matter what you do to me.
Yeah, you used me up,
do it all to me,
do it all to me,
give it to me.

I hope you feel good,
when you’re breaking me down,
when you’re running me baby,
running me right down to the ground.
Give me your best shot,
give me all you can.
I want it all,
yeah, you the fucking man.

I got two shots, and I’m knocking at your door,
got a bullet with your name to put your brain upon the floor.
Two shots, and I’m knocking at your door.
You can run away and hide, but I will find out where you are.

A piece of me, stuck inside of you,
I leave, you bleed, ain’t nothing left to do.
I need to feel, you get it all from me,
I’m gonna give it all to you,
cause you gave it all to me.
I’ll be ok, once you’ve gone away.
Cause I hate you so much I cant fucking see.
Yeah you shoved me down,
burned me out,
you ran your mouth,
well I’m laughin’ now.

Cause I hope you feel good,
when you’re breaking me down.
when you’re running me baby,
running me right down to the ground.
give me your best shot,
give me all you can.
I want it all.
Yeah, you the fucking man.
I got two shots, and I’m knocking at your door,
got a bullet with your name to put your brain upon the floor.
Two shots, and I’m knocking at your door.
You can run away and hide, but I will find out where you are.
