The Villain of This Story Lyrics

Where I was, not one to follow
You gave me something I did not believe
was ever meant for me
Oh my god, I
I am grateful, you know that
But I have nothing to give in return for this
My life for what?
What else was I good for?

You know me
I can't be redeemed
What do you want from me?
You took me out of play
and now you choose to free me again?
I have no cause
I don't believe
I kill, that's all I know
I am the villain of this story,
what else could I ever be?
My penance weaved into this conflict,
this hidden war
I can't believe
you gave me back what I thought for sure lost

But I don't see what I can do here
What is it you want me to be for you?
My life for what?
What else was I good for?
Even though I can't feel what you feel
I understand, and we move forward
Better than alone

Yeah, I am

I know I'm better by your side than lost in night

I have my own reasons

But I'll believe for you
