The three evils


 he

As he spoke his words were like ice going down my wind pipe corrupting me from the inside out

His words were like a wrecking ball

Teasing me with its gentle swaying until it hit me

Cover your ears for you shall hear no evil

Her eyes were the devils pride

They hypnotized you to their very depths

Made you want things you never thought you would

Her eyes were the color of chocolate

They were made to make you melt

Cover your eyes for you have seen evil

Their words filled with taunts and eyes with hate

They want you to retaliate

You open your mouth and something foul comes

Out

Their words filled with taunts and eyes with hate

Speak to them what you ache

But then cover your mouth for thou

shall not speak what is evil
