She left him, just walked away.
Never stopped or looked around
He couldn’t find the words to make her stay
He couldn’t make a sound
He watched her car drive away
Drive off down the street
Finally he turned away
His misery complete
Her love eats like venom into your heart
Her arms both enfold you and tear you apart
Her kisses taste sweet but take away your breath
She makes you feel alive but she leads you to death
She’s poison dressed up in black lingerie
She’s a bride of the devil and you are her prey
Her poison was deep in his heart
Her words fractured his head
His life was now torn apart
A future born in dread
In his mind he replayed the scene
Unable to process what he’d lost
Refusing to accept what it would mean
Not able to count the cost
Her love burns like acid into your mind
Her arms hold you close but permanently bind
Her kisses taste sweet until the end nears
They taste of foul waters when your mind finally clears
She’s a lady of style from shoes to beret
She’s a bride of the devil and you are her prey
They found him next day out in the shed
Swinging slowly from a rafter
He lived for her love but lost it instead
And can’t face the world thereafter
She’s older than time but as young as required
She is as cold as ice but as hot as desired
Her grace and her beauty is without parallel
She dines on despair and she likes to dine well
She’s a dream and a queen who makes her own way
She’s a bride of the devil and you are her prey…
