Coldhearted Criminal
COLDHEARTED CRIMINAL
He met her at the train station
She said she was leaving town
Having ended a bad relation
There was no need to stay around
He convinced her to stay the night
Trust me, I know a way
To make everything alright
When seen in the light of day
She took him up on his plan
Together, they left arm in arm
He seemed like a sincere enough man
What could be the harm
Six months later, she's penniless
Into drugs and prostution
Life had become so meaningless
Was this then her retribution
Where was he who seemed so kind
This man who stole all she had
How could she have been so blind
How did things become so bad
There's no justice for her to regain
The wonderful lilfe she once knew
There's only the hurt and the pain
And it could easily happen to you
The man has moved to another town
To prey on some innocent soul
His actions make him a criminal
How can he be so cold
Genius or Criminal
