The Gloom In The Corner
Villain
[Intro]
I fell in love with the devil and I set him free
So when we lay in our grave, we rest peacefully
[Verse 1]
Pick off my flesh, expose the bone
Show me the demons that lie beneath
Every smile has something to hide
Colourful art thou; with two sets of teeth
Everything you say is infamous
Every act is venomous, villainous
They said ‘trust your head, don’t follow your heart
‘Cause it will lead you down the wrong path
[Pre-Breakdown]
But I followed the devil home
To show the skeleton the worst pain he’d ever known
[Breakdown]
But my heart had other plans; you see
The look in his eyes broke the hate in me
In a state of disparity we all long for company
But is it so wrong to find love in depravity?
[Chorus]
Drown me in sin;
Maybe I love the way you take my breath away
(Love blooms from hate)
A phantom will only bring me pain
(And that's alright)
If love outweighs the hate
So make me feel alive;
If you make me feel, I'll bring the reign
[Post-Chorus]
(Bury the guilt, bury the pain;
You remind me of God in the devilish of ways)
[Verse 2]
Survivor’s guilt brought us together
I found you here with a debt unsettled
While revenge would give me the sweetest taste
The taste of your kiss outweighs the pain
[Pre-Breakdown]
Shakespeare never wrote a love like this
Heaven can lose an angel
I’m sure I won’t be missed
We are all villains in the wrong light
[Breakdown]
Bury the guilt, bury the pain;
You remind me of God in the devilish of ways
[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause God is gone, and so are we;
He can burn in Hell for abandoning you and me
[Chorus]
Drown me in sin;
Maybe I love the way you take my breath away
Love blooms from hate;
A phantom will only bring me pain
(And that's alright)
If love outweighs the hate
(So make me feel alive)
If you make me feel, I'll bring the reign
[Breakdown]
I fell in love with the devil and I set him free
So when we lay in our grave, we rest peacefully
[Outro]
