she shines with evergreen eyes
when she haunts your dreams
she likes to play with strings
while nobody takes it from her
she likes all the eyes on her
coffee tables and vodka limes
they call and pay her
pay with attention

'cause

it's

all

she

really

needs

aphrodite

people only know her
by her long list of lovers
that's for sure
she writes their names
in her bloody books

but no one really cares
what she thinks
the pages in the sink
don't ever make them boys blink

they just want her body
give her love and give her sake
she'll give her heart
and her peace of mind
because desperation
is her middle name
needy like a little child
she says she doesn't want to die
'cause all these boys
make her feel alive
