I don't wanna be
The villain in your dreams any more
I don't wanna be
The reason you lose sleep anymore
I don't wanna be the one
That locks the door and loads the gun
And pulls the trigger 'til you wake up sore
I don't wanna be
The villain in your dreams anymore

I don't wanna be
The one that lets you down anymore
I don't wanna be
The gravity, the ground anymore
I don't wanna be the man
That lifts you up and helps you stand
Then holds you high and drops you to the floor
I don't wanna be
The one that lets you down anymore

I don't wanna be
The one that holds you back anymore
I don't wanna be
The missing piece of track anymore
I don't wanna be the guy
That straps you to a railroad tie
And listens for the rumble and the roar
I don't wanna be
The villain in your dreams anymore
