[Verse 1]
The farther I go, the further you get
Away from who we really are
I choose a different route, a different path in life
Praised by many, but still labeled an outcast

[Chorus]
The things that last never happen overnight
These calloused hands built the foundation of my life
Abandoned for love, left with no advice
How quickly we change overnight

[Verse 2]
Make me out to be the bad guy
How long can I wear the blame?
Sick of feeling wrong
Why do they judge me all the same?
Nobody's perfect, trying to justify myself
To the ones who will never, never understand
Who will never...

[Chorus]
The things that last never happen overnight
These calloused hands built the foundation of my life
Abandoned for love, left with no advice
How quickly we change overnight
[Bridge]
Torture myself, that's what I feel I'm worth
Torture myself, well-aware that the pain is somewhere else
You can root for the villain, I'll take that title
I'll take the heat now and be your rival
Torture myself, that's what I feel I'm worth
Torture myself, well-aware that the pain is somewhere else
You can root for the villain, I'll take that title
I'll take the heat now and be your rival

[Chorus]
The things that last never happen overnight
These calloused hands built the foundation of my life
Abandoned for love, left with no advice
How quickly we change overnight
