Voodoo
Picture Perfect Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm starting to think that i should give up cause all that i want is someone to love
I dont care who i've never been enough it may be bad luck either way i've had it rough
Its like i'm voodoo cursed stuck in some rut, cause every single time things start to look up
I fall straight down to earth back to where i was
I know im just a kid, but starting now i'm fucking done

Dont say love makes the world go round
Cause theres one thing that i have found
Theyre all dead wrong
Theyre all dead wrong
Im sick of always being let down
I've got nothing to live for now
Theyre all dead wrong
Theyre all dead wrong
Dead Wrong

I'm starting to think that i should give up cause all that i want is someone to love
I dont care who i've never been enough it may be bad luck either way i've had it rough
Its like i'm voodoo cursed stuck in some rut, cause every single time things start to look up
I fall straight down to earth back to where i was
I know im just a kid, but starting now i'm fucking done

They say that ill see brighter days
But how long do i have to wait
Theyre all dead wrong
Theyre all dead wrong
Happiness is only a loan
Cause everytime it comes its goes
Theyre all dead wrong
Theyre all dead wrong
Dead wrong

I'm starting to think that i should give up cause all that i want is someone to love
I dont care who i've never been enough it may be bad luck either way i've had it rough
Its like i'm voodoo cursed stuck in some rut, cause every single time things start to look up
I fall straight down to earth back to where i was




I know im just a kid, but starting now i'm fucking done
I gave up so i'll never move on
