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
