She's a Black Magic Woman

There's a dark cloud hanging over her,
As she walked away with tears in her eyes,
and a smile on her face,
She left him there bleeding,
with the words she'd cried,
And a toxic trace,

The black magic woman,

He secretly knew what was held inside of her,
Though he tried so hard,
to reveal what she had to hide,
Trying so hard to see behind the lies,

The black magic woman,

She never knew,
how much he felt for her,
Just what he would do,
to be by her side,
The days,
The weeks,
The months he tried,
To stand by her,
Though she threw him,
pushed him aside,

The black magic woman,

He sat there thinking,
of the things he's done,
The demons he'd slane,
and the heart,
he thought he'd won,
Now blown to pieces and just left there,
She no longer loved him,
and no longer cared,

 The black magic woman,

She was a man's temptation,
A yurning to caress,
Gave her body,
left a mess,
To the man who loved her,
with his heart he gave,
In the hope,
he'd capture her soul and save,

The black magic woman,

As she walked back to her grave.
His soul had been tortured,
his mind left insane,
Locked in a cage,
where he shall remain.
