Villain

Soaring through the sky
Swear I knew you like the back of my hand
I started drowning in this dreadful sea of why we'd have to end

Twisting and turning, I need to then leave you
The cycle, it needed to stop
I don't want you to hate me
Give you plenty of reasons
So you can walk out alive

So I'll be your villain
I'll be the one you wanna leave
I'll let you flee this battle scene
Surrender to myself

I'll be your villain
I'll be the bad guy in your dreams
Whatever to keep you from holding me
I'm only bringing you down

I pull away and come back before you think I'm gone for good
Kept you on your toes, looking over your shoulder
Not fair to love's old forgotten rules

I tried so hard to be good
Thought I could carry on without having to hurt you
I made the same mistakes over and over
It was fate that I had to break you

So I'll be your villain
I'll be the one you wanna leave
I'll let you flee this battle scene
Surrender to myself

I'll be your villain
I'll be the bad guy in your dreams
Whatever to keep you from holding me
I'm only bringing you down

You can put my picture away
Brush off words that I'll say when I'm spiraling
Trying to keep you here
You don't deserve all this pain
It's my choice anyway
I know now that you can't stay
I'll play my character right away
Turn off the lights on us
You're the one that showed up with all of my love
But it's never enough

So I'll be your villain
I'll be the one you wanna leave
I'll let you flee this battle scene
Surrender to myself
I'll be your villain

I'll be the bad guy in your dreams
Whatever to keep you from holding me
I'm only bringing you down
I'm only bringing you down
