The Enemy, The Villain

There's two sides to everything
And your story painted me as the enemy
The villain is me
The villain is me
The final strand in the thread, that's what you always were to me
You tore down what I had around 'til it was only you
Convinced your value when I had nothing else left to believe
You were never to leave, like a haunted memory
Just as a seed must break so it can grow into something
Just like a ship must break its anchor so it can sail away
I had to cut loose
I did whatever I had to
I'll be your villain if it means that I am free. I said
Intentions and integrity
They don't mean a thing in your book you've labeled me the villain
There's two sides to everything
And your story painted me as the enemy
The villain is me
The villain is me
I set the perfect stage, sparked the match and up in flames
The climax and final downfall, the last curtain call
The end of it all, long overdue, unforgivable
Believe in my right mind I'd choose the same outcome every time
Just as the leaves must change, change their colors and fall again
Just as wine needs grapes to ferment, we had to find an end
I mean one dot not three
I just needed finality
I'll be your villain if it means that I am free, I said
There's two sides to everything
And your story painted me as the enemy
The villain
Intentions and integrity
They don't mean a thing in your book you've labeled me the villain
There's two sides to everything
And your story painted me as the enemy
The villain is me
The villain is me
