Villain's Lament

[Verse]
Used to be the shepherd, now the wolf in the den
Gave 'em all my heart, they gave it back in a pen
Etched my kindness in stone, they turned it to sand
Now I’m the shadow creeping, no longer a man
They took the light, left the darkness to breed
Now I plant chaos like a farmer with seeds
The mirror mocks me, a stranger in the glass
Old me’s a ghost, buried deep in the past
[Prechorus]
Who am I now? I can't even tell
Built my own heaven, they dragged me to hell
[Chorus]
I was the good guy, they made me a beast
Fed me their venom, now they’re the feast
The monster they wanted, the villain they see
I hate who I was, but they hated me
[Verse 2]
Smiles were currency, paid 'em in full
But they spent it on knives, left my back looking cruel
Piano keys cracking, every note's outta tune
Turned my kindness to ashes under a blood-red moon
Love was a leash, now I broke out the cage
Every scar on my heart turned to ink on this page
My halo’s a noose, my wings set ablaze
Now I roam the night, lost in a wicked haze
