Evil Hearted You

Evil hearted you
You always try to put me down
With the things you do and words
You spread around against me
Evil hearted you
You kept kidding me along
With your phony smile
And with your siren song smiling, beguiling
You lead me on till all hope's gone
Persuading, degrading
On my knees I try to please
But I love you just the same
And I want you to remain by my side
And you'll see just how much you mean to me
Evil hearted you
You always try to put me down
With the things you do and words
You spread around against me
About me
What would you do without me?
Smiling, beguiling
You lead me on till all hope has gone
