Making You Mine

from Lighthouse by Zanda Myrande

/

about

Precisely what about this song was suggested by the concept of a lighthouse the band seem unable to tell me. A little down-home love magic with some twisty internal rhymes. (This is where I really need actual female voices...preferably at least one that sounds like Eartha Kitt.)

lyrics

MAKING YOU MINE

In the dark of the moon, hear my tune, in the deep of the night
As you sleep, try to fight but you just can't win,
It's a sin and a shame, it's a game that I play so well,
Raising hell, I'm gonna suck you in
Gonna feel so fine--
Making you mine.

Weaving like a snake, gonna shake, gonna shake my tail
As you wake, but you fail to detect my snare
So unfair, so unkind to your mind as I chant my spell,
Can't you tell, you're beginning to care
Reeling in my line--
I'm making you mine.

BRIDGE
Rose petals, damiana,
Coriander seeds,
Jasmine and lavender
Cardamom and such like weeds
Satisfy my needs....

Brewing up a storm, make you warm, make your eyes go wide
As you rise, on the tide of my witchy call
Then the fall, and you're down on the ground and you won't get free,
Don't you see, I'm gonna make you crawl
For a taste of my wine--
Making you mine.

BRIDGE 2
Men think they know the answers
Think they know the score
They can control their urges
To a point, and then no more--
That's what magic's for...

Standing by my gate, don't be late, don't you try to hide
As you fly to my side, and you'll be my slave
'Cause you're craving my touch, it's too much for your poor weak mind
For you'll find that you're mine to the grave
And it's so divine--
I'm making you mine.
You'll be on cloud nine--
I'm making you mine.
That's my grand design--
Making you mine.

She has only come out online at this point, for reasons which may be apparent from the picture above, but she proudly embraces her trans identity while still giving house room to Zander and the rest of the deadbeats who populate her head.
