[Verse 1]
You said I was too much
When I asked for the truth
Found your lie in the seams
Like a stain on your shoes
You missed every call
Then you called me insane
Turned my hurt into smoke
Then you handed me the blame
I saw messages glow
On the screen in your hand
You said "nothing to see"
But I knew where I stood
[Pre-Chorus]
Now you want me quiet
Want me small and sweet
But I know what you did
And I know what I mean
You drew the whole scene
Then you pointed at me
Tried to paint me as cold
When you were the disease
[Chorus]
You made me the villain
You made me the villain
You hid in the shadow
While I took the hit
You made me the villain
You made me the villain
But I see it so clear now
It was you, not me
[Verse 2]
You took all my tears
And you called them a game
Every time I was honest
You would twist it the same
I was begging for care
You were gone in the room
Not just gone with your hands
Gone with where you were going
And if I said "that hurts"
You would roll your eyes slow
Like my heart was a burden
You were tired to hold
[Pre-Chorus]
Now you want me quiet
Want me small and sweet
But I know what you did
And I know what I mean
You drew the whole scene
Then you pointed at me
Tried to paint me as cold
When you were the disease
[Chorus]
You made me the villain
You made me the villain
You hid in the shadow
While I took the hit
You made me the villain
You made me the villain
But I see it so clear now
It was you, not me
[Bridge]
I don't owe you mercy
For the mess you made
I don't need your version
To know what stayed
Every bruise had a name
Every night had a line
I was losing myself
While you fed on my mind
[Final Chorus]
You made me the villain
You made me the villain
You hid in the shadow
While I took the hit
You made me the villain
You made me the villain
But I see it so clear now
It was you, not me
You made me the villain
(you made me the villain)
You made me the villain
(but I got free)
