[Verse 1]
Burned my cape
Ripped my name off the wall
They cheered my fall
Every dagger had a friend behind it
Played the beast
So their halos looked clean
I was king of the mean
Till you walked through the smoke and found me (hey)
[Chorus]
Who could love a villain with a paper crown heart?
All teeth
All scars
All bad first impressions
You held up a mirror
Said “you’re more than that part”
Now my rage looks small next to your confession
If I’m the storm
You’re the spark in the dark
Who could love a villain with a paper crown heart?
You could
You do
[Verse 2]
You saw cracks
Under armor and ash
Called my chaos a mask
Said my hurt was just history screaming
You touched fangs
Didn’t flinch when they bared
I was furious and scared
You just laughed
Said “you’re terribly human” (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
Who could love a villain with a paper crown heart?
All teeth
All scars
All bad first impressions
You held up a mirror
Said “you’re more than that part”
Now my rage looks small next to your confession
If I’m the storm
You’re the spark in the dark
Who could love a villain with a paper crown heart?
You could
You do
[Bridge]
They wrote me wrong in their storyboards
Black ink over every page
But you’re scribbling stars in the margins
Turning curses into stage
[Chorus]
Who could love a villain with a paper crown heart?
All teeth
All scars
But your hands never tremble
You’re teaching my ruin how to fall apart smart
Trading thrones made of spite for something gentle
If I’m the storm
You’re the spark in the dark
Who could love a villain with a paper crown heart?
You could
You do
(Yeah, you do)
