My Only Regret

The world outside is cold and grim. I was searching for a friend. You told me the things I wanted to hear. You made me believe that you cared. All the promises you made to me You made the same, to other women I see. I gave you my heart and my trust Come to find out so did everyone else. So tell me, how do you do it? Wrap all these girls around your finger. Make them believe in your dreams and fairytale endings. Talk them into taking dirty pictures As you take advantage of their weaknesses and tears Does this make you feel like a real man? I got tangled up in your wonderland. You swore to me you would never leave. How many other promises did you make and not keep? How many other lives have you ruined doing this? As you hide behind your computer screen tonight. You’re a lonely and pathetic man I now see Never a friend of mine you were. You just wanted another girl to prey on..

unfortunately these user types prey on the women who fall under the spell of love...till they lose their charm with age,and wind up alone....
