[Verse 1]
I wore the smile like a mask
Tucked my teeth in the dark
They called me small, called me kind
Now I’m carving that mark
You left the door half-open
So I learned the whole house
Every secret in your hands
I can drag it all out
I kept my hands in my pockets
While you counted your wins
Now the room goes quiet
When I step back in
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that cold click-clack
That’s the shift in my stance
You taught me how to lose
Now I know how to dance
One step, then I’m closer
I can feel the room bend
You made me into a weapon
And I’m aiming again
[Chorus]
Brand new villain
Look me in the face
Brand new villain
I don’t need your grace
You made this fire
Now it knows my name
Brand new villain
I wear the blame
(brand new villain)
(brand new villain)
[Verse 2]
I know where the weak spots are
I know what you hide
The gold in your throat
And the panic in your eyes
You built your little kingdom
On a pile of my bones
Now I’m knocking at the gate
With a crown made of stone
I don’t want your apology
I don’t need your peace
I just want the truth
With your hands on your knees
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that cold click-clack
That’s the shift in my stance
You taught me how to lose
Now I know how to dance
One step, then I’m closer
I can feel the room bend
You made me into a weapon
And I’m aiming again
[Chorus]
Brand new villain
Look me in the face
Brand new villain
I don’t need your grace
You made this fire
Now it knows my name
Brand new villain
I wear the blame
(brand new villain)
(brand new villain)
[Bridge]
I was the wound
You kept pressing
Now I’m the lesson
Now I’m the reckoning
No more begging
No more bending
I’m the shadow
At your ending
[Final Chorus]
Brand new villain
Look me in the face
Brand new villain
I don’t need your grace
You made this fire
Now it knows my name
Brand new villain
I wear the blame
Brand new villain
Say it again
Brand new villain
I’m not your friend
(brand new villain)
(brand new villain)
