places

Places we once found are others' now
Places that we know have turned around
But I'm still breathing though looks can be deceiving
I have found out
That going nowhere, that place that makes us so scared
Isn't scary now

So maybe I should thank you
I haven't shown I'm grateful
When all I wanna do is hate you
Been acting so distasteful but it's over now
And I can say I'm proud of everything I've done

Places where we argued are flourishing
Places where we lied down are discouraging
But I'm still breathing though maybe in the evening
I still replay
Those moments you stole and pulled me in your black hole
But it's okay

So maybe I should thank you
I haven't shown I'm grateful
When all I wanna do is hate you
Your influence was fateful but it's over now
And I can say I'm proud of everything I've done

And we don't have to be civil
I don't wanna be friends
If I learned one thing from my childhood
Every road comes to an end
And I will walk with my head high
Through the circles that I drew
And every border that I conquer
Keeps me far away from you
Every statement has an echo
Every word a spoken line
After everything you took from me
Those memories are mine
And sure, I think about karma
And every higher-powered plot
So I will be the things I am
And I won't be the things I'm not

I'm not a villain
I'm not a villain
I'm not a villain
I'm not a villain
No, no, no, no I'm not a victim
I'm not a victim, no
I'm not a victim
I'm not a victim
