Villainize Lyrics

I don't wanna ask you how you've been

I don't want to know that you're thriving at the moment

I don't want you thinking that you win

But I don't think you do

'Cause you've barely even noticed

I happened to overhear

All your friends think I'm weird

"She's annoying and a pain and she needs to let go"

Well I'm as petty as they get so

I could swear on your guts

But you don't care enough

To even put a little effort to hate me

At the end of the day

You're still perfectly ok

And I'm the only one who's on the verge of breaking

I'll fake my happy ending

And then twist you in the story

I'll carry on pretending

I'm the good guy who did nothing wrong

Nobody knows the truth

So they watch as I villainize you

You don't wanna know if I'm ok

I don't think it's fair how I still care about you now

Yesterday my friend brought up your name

And it left a bitter taste in my mouth

The story would be criminal

If heartbreak was illegal

I would've liked the hero

But the hero had an ego

You haven't heard the last of me yet

You know, I'm as petty as they get but

I could swear on your guts

But you don't care enough

To even put a little effort to hate me

At the end of the day

You're still perfectly ok

And I'm the only one who's on the verge of breaking

I'll fake my happy ending

And then twist you in the story

I'll carry on pretending

I'm the good guy who did nothing wrong

Nobody knows the truth

So they watch as I villainize you

Villainize

Villainize

Villainize, watch as I villainize you

Villainize

Villainize

Villainize, watch as I villainize

You may have been the worst thing that I regret

But it doesn't change the fact that I loved you

And if you cared a little bit more

Then maybe I never would've hurt you

I'm the poor girl who was lied to

You're my rival I was tied to

I'll make everyone despise you

And I don't care about the truth

They'll believe me when I villainize you

I could swear on your guts

But I'm not old enough

To face the fact that what we had is truly over

At the end of the day

I'm still perfectly in pain

And she destroys all thoughts I have of getting closer

I'll fake my happy ending

And then twist you in the story

I'll carry on pretending

You're the bad guy in all of the songs

Nobody knows the truth

So they watch as I villainize you
