She catches the eye like the clothes she wears
In her designer jeans an' snow white hair
Blood red lips just like a dark rose petal
When she drives so fast it's pedal to th' metal
And you can see the madness in her eyes
Like a coiled snake waiting
To take you by surprise
She's like a sports car always running lean
High on octane fueled by those amphetamines
She'll take your soul right from the very start
'til your eyes are poppin' like the pills she covets
She's the eye of the needle here
Like a cannibal feasting
You'll just disappear
Though you want her so bad like a fix
She'll suicide on you with her deadly mix
An' no amount of chic an' class will ever redeem
All the faith she puts in her ice an' coke fuelled dreams
If you catch on fast you might just escape
Don't get your fingers burned
Just get a little faith
She catches the eye like the clothes she wears
In her designer jeans an' snow white hair
Blood red lips just like a dark rose petal
When she drives so fast it's pedal to th' metal
And you can see the madness in her eyes
Like a coiled snake waiting
To take you by surprise
She's a breakdown waitin' to explode
She's a breakdown waitin' to explode
She's a breakdown waitin' to explode
Author notes
Option# 3. “She's in designer jeans
On amphetamines
And wants you badly
And he's a real cannibal
And suicidal
Erratic on heavy metal” – Boys & Girls

intriguing
a very strong piece, from beginning to end. imagery is certainly a strength of yours. There's a kind of craziness behind the words here and it really draws one into the piece. I'm sure, with the right music, this would be a fantastic song. thanks for entering my contest and best wishes for your continued writing! -
Good Job!!
I'm gonna enter the contest too, but I don't think I can overule this peice of work. NiCe!!!
