They called me darkness
Said I crossed the line
Made me the monster
In their world of lies
Yet you wear white
They call you pure
While hiding your sins
Behind closed doors

What if there's no black or white
Good and bad just fade away
Someone always pays the price
No one's born that way

On the other side of glory
There's a heart that beats the same
We have different stories
But we share the same old pain
Call me villain while you leave me behind
If you'd only look closer
On the other side

You saved the world
But you lost your soul
I broke the rules
Just to stay whole
Unlike you, I don't hide behind a mask
I'm not afraid to show my scars

What if I didn't speak my mind
How could I save them, if I never tried
I'm being punished for my sins
You see a monster in me

On the other side of glory
There's a heart that beats the same
We have different stories
But we share the same old pain
Call me villain while you leave me behind
If you'd only look closer
On the other side

If you looked through my eyes
Would you still throw
The first stone
Would you, would you see the fire
That shaped my soul
Would you
Look into the mirror, you'll see my name
If I could change my life
I'd do it again
Do it all again

I'm burning bridges
'Cause I walk alone
No matter how far down I go
I'm not a hero

On the other side of glory
There's a heart that beats the same
We have different stories
But we share the same old pain
Call me villain while you leave me behind
If you'd only look closer
On the other side

(You call me a villain)
But I feel alive
(You call me a villain)
It's made its home inside
Call me a villain and leave me behind
Two sides of a story, but I survived

If you'd only look closer
On the other side
