The Villain Songtext
von John Michael Howell

I always seemed to be
My own hero
Justified inside my mind
When you′re the one in grieve
While I got zero
Pain on my side
I know it ain't right

I broke your heart
Left it in pieces
Now you′re in the dark
And I'm the reason
It's been so hard
Looking in the mirror
′Cuz when I do all it all is clear
The only villain here
Is me


La la la
La la la la
La la la
The only villain here-
(La la la)
(La la la la)
(La la la)

I didn′t recognize
My reflection
Not the victim
I excepted
Nothing in those eyes
Screamed rejection
Only lies that
I projected
Hmm

I broke your heart
Left it in pieces
Now you're in the dark
And I′m the reason
It's been so hard
Looking in the mirror
′Cuz when I do all it all is clear
The only villain here
Is me


La la la
La la la la
La la la
The only villain here-
(La la la)
(La la la la)
(La la la)
Hmm

Stole your heart
Called myself a vigilante
Like I'm the good guy
And you′re the baddie
Now I see scars
Painted up and down the alley
Where I cut our ties
And left you lonely

I broke your heart
I didn't mean it
Now you're in the dark
Trying to find the pieces
It′s been so hard
Looking in the mirror
′Cuz when I do it all is clear
The only villain here
Is me

La la la
The only villain here (La la la la)
La la la
The only villain here-

I broke your heart
Left it in pieces
Now you're in the dark
And I′m the reason
It's been so hard
Looking in the mirror
′Cuz when I do it all is clear
The only villain here
Is me
