Desperate Measures Lyrics

Gonna make a heart throb out of me
Just a bit of minor surgery
These desperate times call for desperate measures
I'll give you something to cry about
Show some skin, and would be cache
How could you let this get to desperate measures now?
For a first effort this,
Feels kinda last ditch
I guess this just
Got kinda drastic
Trust us you just fell off the bus, baby
I can't let this, I can't let this go
When I got you right where I want you
I been pushing for this for so long
Kiss me, just once, for luck

These are desperate measures now
I can't let this, I can't let this go
Have a piece of American dream
Open up, and swallow, on your knees
And say "Thank you"
I'd like some desperate measures, please
For a first effort this,
Feels kinda last ditch
I guess this just
Got kinda drastic
Trust us, you just fell off the bus, suckers
Yeah, well, payback is a mother fucker
I can't let this, I can't let this go
When I got you right where I want you
I been pushing for this for so long
Kiss me, just once, for luck
These are desperate measures now
I can't let this, I can't let this go
Go Forever, for worse, or better
My poor heart will only surrender
Go forever, for worse, or better
My poor heart will only surrender, now
I can't let this, I can't let this go
When I got you right where I want you
I been pushing for this for so long
Kiss me, just once, for luck
These are desperate measures now
I can't let this, I can't let this go
When I got you right where I want you
I been pushing for this for so long
Kiss me, just once, for luck
These are desperate measures now
I can't let this, I can't let this go

John Robert Matz was immersed in music from the day he was born.

The son of two musicians, a creative seed was planted at an early age that drove him to create, to externalize the music that echoed in his head. By the age of nine he was writing short pieces for piano and by middle school he had moved to hymn arrangements for concert band. In his high school years he began writing music for student films and stage productions, becoming the student composer-in-residence of the award-winning Schaumburg Youth Symphony Orchestra. Scores like John Williams' "Star Wars" and Howard Shore's "Lord of the Rings" combined with classic video game music like Lennie Moore's "Outcast" and Peter McConnell’s “Grim Fandango” made huge impressions on him, and drove him to study music composition during his collegiate years, even as he worked towards a degree in music education, another lifelong passion of his.

Today, he has written music for projects as varied as "Artemis: The Spaceship Bridge Simulator". "Rodina", and the award-winning (BAFTA-Nominated) "Gunpoint", as well as being a regular musical contributor to Rocketjump Studios' wide array of internet short films. In his spare time, between contracts and commissions, he writes music for orchestras and wind ensembles, and is working on his first symphony, a tone-poem based on the concept of lighter-than-air travel.
