And when she walks across the crowded room
The voices turn to silence
They can see her devil eyes
And they can hear her breath cry out
Through the holes in her cheeks
Across the lipstick on her teeth
She's aching and she's shaking
She is breaking
Like the bottle by her feet
They're all staring at her, now
As she screams up at the clouds
She's freaking out and sinking down
I'm thinking
Don't bullets make that sound
And when she lays down in the crowded room
The voices turn to silence
They can see her devil eyes
But they can't hear her breath cry out
So she lays there in the middle
Between the blues, between the whites
The ruby on her necklace shines without a light
There's crying in the backyard
And the moon is hidden from the sky
Devil Eyes
