The Villain

They're shallow
I'm walking in the deep end
A hollow
A villain in my soul

A broken road
Everywhere I go
Leaving me empty
And handing me the rope

I will never claim this loves unending
I will find myself and stop pretending

I just want you to believe in me
All that's left here is unraveling
As days go by
Still I try
There's more for me
Forget the misery

My shadows
Becoming more than I can bear
Gotta learn to let loose and let go
And live my life without a care
What follows is a life that we can share
I've gotta learn to rewind and take time
And think about the moment here

I will never claim this loves unending
I will find myself and stop pretending

I just want you to believe in me
All that's left here is unraveling
As days go by
Still I try
There's more for me
Forget the misery

Why should I try to prove that you're wrong
Only want to feel I belong
Tried so hard to be
What you want from me

Why should I try so hard to be strong
Withered away for far too long
In this broken life
Find no peace of mind for me

I just want you to believe in me
All that's left here is unraveling
As days go by
Still I try
There's more for me
Forget the misery
