Love Fraud

Punch the button dial 9 three times 
“Hello This is the emergency line” 
“Excuse me yes id like to report a crime”
For you see this man took something that was mine 
He took my hope, my trust, my love my time 
Confused me with fakery bull and lies 
Counterfeit love right in front of my eyes 
Guess he thought I’d never get wise 
He always waited until it was after dark
When he knew he had fooled my heart 
Creeping in, trespassing my property
Taking things that weren’t meant to be 
Made me break promises I’d promised to keep,
That no man would cause me tears and lose me sleep 
Should call him Spider-Man with the web he spun 
His art of deception is second to none 
Split personality and divided attention 
He needs redemption redemption redemption 
So can I have a crime number now Uve heard my statement 
Need to phone my life insurance to claim that payment 
If my life’s been ruined do you think they will pay out? 
If I break it all down and lay it out 
Put it into words and say it out 
Bag it all up and weigh it out 
Insured my life when my life was mapped out
Before u was exposed and before u tapped out
 Untick the terms and conditions it wasn’t genuine cover
That diamond turned out to be cubic zirconia
Surely a complete lie must be insurable 
Like cheating ways are practically incurable 
And maybe I don’t know the law atall 
And maybe I just look even more a fool 
But how else will he be held accountable 
When His part in my demise is undoubtable 
He kidnapped my hope and murdered my dreams
Denied me my future ripped it apart at the seams 
Left me only with broken pieces 
What I thought was smooth was actually creases
If a judge won’t be the one to pass a sentence 
And ur ears are deaf to my ten Cents 
try to convince us it’s all rumours and nonsense 
But u know what it is that’s on ur conscience 
And when ur time comes ur world will crash down 
When what goes around makes its way back around 
And when it’s you being played and ur not the one that’s winning 
When ur hearing words but you’re not sure of their meaning 
When u can’t work out what’s real and what’s deceit 
When u start to feel the first pains of defeat 
And I hope when it comes it will hit u hard 
The ultimate punishment for love fraud 
Scam the scammer, fool the fool 
Switch it up and change the rules
