Your False Intentions

This is the last time I'll be caught up in your trap.
False intent and callousness are feathers in your cap.

No one there to break your fall,your gaming days are over.
Nobody's home to take your call,go try to dance in clover.

I loved you with all my being,still you took more than that.
Your intentions not so easily seen,those promises fell flat.

You took my heart and battered it in a blitzkrieg attack.
Held my soul and shattered it;you never did look back.

Won't be the icing on your cake,don't even want to try.
All is not lost,I'm stronger and I've come to say goodbye.
