The Villain John Michael Howell

[Verse 1]
I always seem to be my own hero
Justified inside my mind when
You're the one in grief while I got zero
Pain on my side, I know it ain't right

[Chorus]
I broke your heart, left it in pieces
Now you're in the dark, and I'm the reason
It's been so hard lookin' in the mirror
'Cause when I do, it all is clear
The only villain here is me

[Post-Chorus]
(La-la-la, la-la-la-la)
(La-la-la) the only villain here—here
(La-la-la, la-la-la-la)
(La-la-la)

[Verse 2]
I didn't recognize my reflection
Not the victim I expected
Nothin' in thosе eyes screamеd "Rejection"
Only lies that I projected, mm-mm-mm-mm

[Chorus]
I broke your heart, left it in pieces
Now you're in the dark, and I'm the reason
It's been so hard lookin' in the mirror
'Cause when I do, it all is clear
The only villain here is me
