Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Guess I’m the name they pass around town
The one they blame when it all goes down
Yeah
I’ve worn that mask so many nights
Black hat pulled low
Just to stay alive
[Pre-Chorus]
I know the way this chapter ends
Pages burned
A back turned friend
[Chorus]
It’s a role I was forced to play
But I play it well
That’s what they say
Guess I’ll be the villain in everyone’s story
Take their hurt
Take their hell
Take the glory
Paint me wrong in their midnight wars
But I don’t wanna be the villain in yours
No
I don’t wanna be the villain in yours
[Verse 2]
I’ve heard the rumors on your front porch swing
How every heartbreak somehow spells my name
Truth gets twisted like a barroom joke
Till I’m the ghost in every cloud of smoke
[Pre-Chorus]
But when you look straight through my skin
You see the boy I’ve always been
[Chorus]
It’s a role I was forced to play
But I play it well
That’s what they say
Guess I’ll be the villain in everyone’s story
Take their hurt
Take their hell
Take the glory
Paint me wrong in their midnight wars
But I don’t wanna be the villain in yours
No
I don’t wanna be the villain in yours
[Bridge]
Let them point
Let them curse my name (oh-oh)
I’ll take the fall if it keeps you safe
Write me out as the bad mistake
Just promise me one thing you won’t break
[Chorus]
‘Cause it’s a role I was forced to play
Yeah
I play it well
That’s what they say
Guess I’ll be the villain in everyone’s story
Take their hurt
Take their hell
Take the glory
Paint me wrong in their midnight wars
But I don’t wanna be the villain in yours
No
I don’t wanna be the villain in yours
(Please) don’t make me the villain in yours
