There's magic behind your eyes. There's deception there, too, if you look close enough.

You reel people in by your so-called "innocence", talking with a sickly sweet sweetness that's so damn sweet, it's bitter. Your eyes fake a smile, just like you fake a heart.

Over the years, you get people to trust you with all of their being. Their soul is now yours.

And what do you do?

Crush it in your fist.
