Keep coming back
To the bullshit
I'm always on
Swallow it down
Like the drink
I am sippin' on
Time and again
Voice of doubt
Running through my head
Accepting the fact
That I might be a villain
I can't stop myself from giving it all
This fear inside my chest
Engraved in my soul
(yeah)
It always comes around
(comes around)
Hunting me down
(Me down)
Breathe deep and let go
(Let go)
I'm losing control
Yeah
Perspective is funny
Surface is tricky
Cover deceiving
Careful perceiving
Image seems lovely
But zoom in some more
Details ugly
Ignorance is lucky
Cause knowledge just kills
What we don't know don't hurt
But what we do will
If you don't know one thing
Do you really know anything
I look inside the mirror
And all I see is the enemy
Yeah
Sorry I'm the villain
Rockstar life is the only one appealin'
Sorry had to leave you
Couldn't ignore what I was feelin'
Every story needs a bad guy
To keep the show thrillin'
Mirror foggy but the visions clear
Well aware I hurt you dear
Selfish had to leave you there
Let's face it
Normal life is what I fear
I long a life beyond compare
I gotta trust my time will near
Keep coming back
To the bullshit
I'm always on
Swallow it down
Like the drink
I am sippin' on
Time and again
Voice of doubt
Running through my head
Accepting the fact
That I might be a villain
I can't stop myself from giving it all
(Giving it all)
This fear inside my chest
Engraved in my soul
It always comes around
(Comes around)
Hunting me down
(Me down)
Breathe deep and let go
(Let go)
I'm losing control
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm losing control
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm losing control
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm losing control
(Losing control)
I'm losing control
Am who I am and I can't let go
What if I choose to accept
This who I am
That's no longer in question
What if I let it consume
There's more to the villain
Than surface assumed
My demons so often just loom
The shade turns to shadows
Each rise of the moon
I'm all for the rage
Til the next afternoon
Where were my morals
They faded so soon
Yeah
I'm too far gone
To take care of you
Is a lot to take on
Personal gain
Is what I'm bent on
Know it's not right
But I'm too far withdrawn
I am the villain
What's it matter to you
Need me a whiskey
Fuck that
I need two
All that I write
The team knows it's true
If you don't believe me
I'll prove it to you
Keep coming back
To the bullshit
I'm always on
Swallow it down
Like the drink
I am sippin' on
Time and again
Voice of doubt
Running through my head
Accepting the fact
That I might be a villain
I can't stop myself from giving it all
