Dragonfly

Maybe I'm the antagonist The villain of your story Maybe I am the enemy I keep on falling from glory Know I've made a few mistakes But have I made too many? Maybe I am the bad guy Maybe I'm a dragonfly You don't know the first thing about me, you've never seen behind these eyes Never seen into this one of a kind fucked up mind Definitely nowhere you wanna be, I'll tell you that Torture every day, you think it's gone, then it comes back Voices in my head are saying everyone's the enemy Everyone is out to get you, don't fight, don't flee Every choice is the wrong choice, every word makes it worse, your apologies are as empty as your life is worth Now hold on, can we switch the narrative? Pausing persistent pessimism is imperative The protrusion in pleading and taking a mental beating But alliteration doesn't help deter the lies you're feeding Yourself, there's a shelf, with your desires up high But you put it there, now you're scared, worried you can't fly But every villain has their favorite secret superpower And yours is ready to appear in the witching hour Maybe I'm the antagonist The villain of your story Maybe I am the enemy I keep on falling from glory Know I've made a few mistakes But have I made too many? Maybe I am the bad guy Maybe I'm a dragonfly Now I'm not saying I'm perfect I'm not saying that I'm flawless I'm not saying that I'm without faults But if I'm being honest I've been living it up in the back of your head Rent free, send me, A post card full of death threats you can Stop being friendly Now I'm back to work And I'm building up my empire Like a phoenix cause you killed me But now I'm just on fire I can tell you're bothered by the fact That I don't go down easy This is chapter two, baby It's a whole new me Maybe I'm the antagonist Maybe I am the enemy Maybe I'm the antagonist The villain of your story Maybe I am the enemy I keep on falling from glory Know I've made a few mistakes But have I made too many? Maybe I am the bad guy Maybe I'm a dragonfly
