Her kiss was full of venom
Her teeth were made out of
  broken pieces of glass
Her tongue was a slithering snake
  that crawled down your throat
  and squeezed all the blood out
  of your heart and swallowed
  your soul whole
She couldn't help but stab you in
  the back, her finger nails were all little
  daggers... she couldn't hold or touch
  anyone without cutting to the bone
She was beautiful though, and even more
  beautiful to anyone who looked at her
  with heartache in their eyes
And she could smell heartache,
  heartache and loneliness and all
  the foul smells of a broken soul.
She was helplessly attracted to the scent,
  she couldn't control herself around the
  aroma of misery
You could never tell by looking at her, but
  she was miserable too.
She was as every bit as broken as she
  was beautiful
She made a deal with the devil the first time
  her heart was broken, she just didn't want
  to feel the pain she told him
So he shook her hand and numbed her wounds
  but he never took the pain away
Her heart is still broken but she doesn't know
Because she can't feel what the devil
  made numb
