Villain
Ravenscode Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you look upon your face
And you're happy with what you see
You can't get the best of me
You know what want
And you think it's worth fighting for
But despite what you believe
You're the villain
When you realize you're the villain
And you're not here to save all our souls
Alone here
When you realize you're alone here
Fall
They're just here to watch you fall
When you stand in the spotlight
There's something else to see
Hiding behind your eyes
You can't get the best of me
Now the words that you speak
Will betray who you are in time
You're starting to realize
You're the villain
When you realize you're the villain
And you're not here to save all our souls
Alone here
When you realize you're alone here
Fall
They're just here to watch you fall
You're the villain
When you realize you're the villain
And you're not here to save all our souls
Alone here
When you realize you're alone here
Fall
They're just here to watch you fall
Fall...
The song "Villain" by Ravenscode is about self-reflection and realizing one's true nature. The lyrics convey the idea that it's easy to start your day when you're happy with yourself and your life, but it's easy to deceive yourself into thinking you're fighting for what you genuinely want when, in reality, you're just in it for your own benefit. The song communicates the idea that you become the villain when you realize that you're not the hero you thought you were and that you're not here to save everyone's souls.
The song's message encourages introspection and coming face-to-face with one's true self, not just the facade that's presented to the world. When you're in the spotlight, people see past the facade and look for the true intentions behind your actions. The lyrics reflect that words eventually betray who you are and that realization can be difficult to confront.
Overall, "Villain" is a song that encourages self-examination and honest inner reflection. The song's message is powerful as it challenges listeners to examine whether they are living a life true to themselves or if they are just pretending.
Line by Line Meaning
It's easy to start your day
Beginning your day is effortless
When you look upon your face
Observing your own countenance
And you're happy with what you see
And you are satisfied with your reflection
You can't get the best of me
No one can overcome me
You know what want
You have knowledge of what you desire
And you think it's worth fighting for
And you deem it worthy of fighting for
But despite what you believe
However, contrary to your beliefs
You're the villain
You are the antagonist
When you realize you're the villain
When you comprehend that you are the antagonist
And you're not here to save all our souls
And you aren't here to redeem our souls
Alone here
All by yourself over here
When you realize you're alone here
When you realize that you are all by yourself
Fall
Collapse
They're just here to watch you fall
They are just present to witness your downfall
When you stand in the spotlight
When you stand under the limelight
There's something else to see
There's something to discover
Hiding behind your eyes
Concealed beneath your eyes
Now the words that you speak
Now your spoken words
Will betray who you are in time
Will eventually reveal your true nature
You're starting to realize
You are commencing to comprehend
