Intentions

How many times must I hear it?
Promises abundantly made false
How many times will you make me fear it?
The eventual lack of love and of blood beating through your pulse

With my intentions pure and faithful, I never thought that I could be wrong
His are shoulders that I cradled and never thought would stop being strong
With my intentions young forever, I never thought that I could be wrong
Missing him was missing myself, I never thought I'd stop

Oooh oh oh
Oooh oh oh oh oh

How many nights did I spend here?
Crying through the phone till you felt guilt
Because you lie to avoid feeling
You know I've been neglected all my life, a rose with will to wilt

How many times must I hear it?
Accusations, I seethe alone
With my intentions and bitter reality
A distortion of my best remarks is all you'll ever know
How many times was I repeating?
I should've seen the signs 'cause I pointed at them all
My intentions were a casualty
I was mistaken when I misfired, no, you're so unattainable
You know you lie to avoid feeling
And I'm a rose so sick
You know I loved you
I tried to love you after everything

Oooh oh oh
Oooh oh oh oh
Oooh oh oh
Oooh oh oh
Oooh oh oh oh
Oooh oh oh
Oooh oh oh oh

With my intentions pure and faithful, I never thought that I could be wrong
His are shoulders that I cradled and never thought would stop being strong
With my intentions young forever, I never thought that I could be wrong
Missing him was missing myself, I never thought I'd stop
