《Painful Words》The Villain in The Mirror
Advertisement
I've thought I was the hero all along
But looking back I realize I'm wrong
I'm just a monster
People who think about me
Wonder 'who could want her'
I thought I was the daytime light
Until I looked in the mirror and saw
My face looks so hurt that I'm the dark during the night
Everything used to be black and white
But now it's so gray because it's a blurred line
What's right and what's wrong?
What happened to when I used to feel so strong?
When I was younger and watched a movie
I hated the bad guy, the villain
Looking back now
I know why I hated the one who was doing the killing
Because I was killing myself slowly
I could relate because I was lonely
I knew what it felt to feel so torn that you wonder if you're the problem
Over the days I watched my face turn solemn
Still, I thought I was good
Until I looked in the mirror and took off the hood
And saw the villain staring back
The very essence of the one from my childhood
I'm not bad
I'm not good
I'm just misunderstood
Most nights I think I'm the villain
During the times I just sit in my room while chillin'
What happens in the movies is true
The villain always does lose
I would know this
Because when I look in the mirror I see this
And I know I'm going to be defeated
Because of the way I am treated
It's all my fault
Was I ever even happy or good at all?
