simply...
By Lylani
Entwine emotions in a clever turn of phrase
Tie the truth in knots
so you can't see what it was
Spin the fleece of my despair
Into a fine strand of beauty
But the truth is...
you simply didn't call
And
I
Am
Simply lost

I think she is saying he lost the truth intentionally. Sort of casting things in a favorable light for himself.
