Bad guy

Lyrics

You only call me when the stars don't shine, When your world falls down and you're losing your mind. Say I'm trouble, say I'm wrong, But I'm the one you lean on all night long. He wears gold but he don't stay, I'm the shadow that never fades. Paint my name in black and white, Still I'm showing up every night. You tell your friends I'm dangerous, Like loving me is way too much. But every time you need somebody, Guess who's waiting in the dark? Maybe I'm the bad guy, Maybe I'm the last light. Everybody points their fingers, But nobody knows my side. Call me what you wanna, Run until the sunrise. If loving you makes me the villain, Then I'll wear the black tonight. I've got scars they never see, Built these walls brick by brick around me. You read headlines, not the truth, Never heard the story from my point of view. I'm not perfect, never claimed, I've just learned to hide the pain. So if I'm cold when I walk by, It's only 'cause I froze inside. Maybe monsters aren't just born... Maybe they're created. Every broken promise left Another heart contaminated. You can blame me if it helps you sleep, I'll take the weight again. But don't forget who stayed around When everybody else just left. Maybe I'm the bad guy, Maybe that's alright. I'd rather wear these battle scars Than fake another perfect life. Call me what you wanna, Say I lost the fight. If loving you makes me the villain, Then I'll be your bad guy tonight.
