I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
It's the way they move, it's the skin tight dress
Nothing I can say that ain't already been said
Turn out the lights, turn up the heat, we're going higher
They put a smile on your face, we all slave to love
Hits you like a hammer when you're already nailed
Slip off your shoes, pull down your hair, whoa desire
She's got the look (She's got the look)
Whoa firing on all six
She's Miss Perfection (Little Miss Perfection)
She'll tear your heart out
Nothing as dangerous as Women And Love
No there's nothing as venomous as when love bites
Nothing on Earth can make you feel the way they do
No there's nothing as dangerous as Women And Love
Throw down the rules books. Love don't read or write
You don't stand a chance when her body talks
You've got the feeling, you've got to know, she's Miss Temptation
'Cuz the body is willing and the spirit is weak
Oh you start to burn with the fires of sin
Down on your knees, crawling across the floor, no hesitation
She's got the look (She's got the look)
Whoa firing on all six
She's Miss Perfection (Little Miss Perfection)
She'll tear your heart out
Nothing as dangerous as Women And Love
No there's nothing as venomous as when love bites
Nothing on Earth can make you feel the way they do
No there's nothing as dangerous as Women And Love
Nothing I can say that ain't already been said
Turn out the lights, turn up the heat, we're going higher
They put a smile on your face, we all slave to love
Hits you like a hammer when you're already nailed
Slip off your shoes, pull down your hair, whoa desire
She's got the look (She's got the look)
Whoa firing on all six
She's Miss Perfection (Little Miss Perfection)
She'll tear your heart out
Nothing as dangerous as Women And Love
No there's nothing as venomous as when love bites
Nothing on Earth can make you feel the way they do
No there's nothing as dangerous as Women And Love
Throw down the rules books. Love don't read or write
You don't stand a chance when her body talks
You've got the feeling, you've got to know, she's Miss Temptation
'Cuz the body is willing and the spirit is weak
Oh you start to burn with the fires of sin
Down on your knees, crawling across the floor, no hesitation
She's got the look (She's got the look)
Whoa firing on all six
She's Miss Perfection (Little Miss Perfection)
She'll tear your heart out
Nothing as dangerous as Women And Love
No there's nothing as venomous as when love bites
Nothing on Earth can make you feel the way they do
No there's nothing as dangerous as Women And Love
