She Couldn'T Save a Devil's Soul

She Couldn't Save a Devil's Soul
she was so young and so sweet with a heart that felt very deep
from a childhood of despair, easy prey in his snare
he saw a target she'll be perfect, he'll make her think he's worth it
Slowly he earns her trust, then break her down he must

Quickly he shows his temper, still she doesn't make a whimper
She tries to see past his mistakes, just do what ever it takes
Still her tears are ignored, he is so angry she's became a bore
Soon she realizes she can't stay, he will always be this way
none if it she could control, she couldn't save a devils soul


                                                                      Valarie Miller
