Villain
Dark Station Lyrics

Kept down in the dark Where I can be bold Like a scar or a mark That keeps me cold
The singer feels comfortable being hidden away from the world, like an injury that reminds them of their pain

We hide from the world What we really are Inside where we're born Like the monsters in Hell
As humans, we keep our true selves hidden and protected, like demons trapped inside of us

I know, there's only one way out I know, you won't stop me now I know, to break the rules like a bullet Through the glass It's all become so clear
The singer is determined to escape their confinement, even if it means breaking the rules and taking risks

You never want to take the blame You always love to play the game And you'll never die in the glory of fame You'll always be, the villain in me
The person being addressed is someone who always avoids responsibility, enjoys manipulating others, and will always be seen as the 'bad guy' in the eyes of the artist

With the fire and fear Burning blood on the sheets The truth eats us alive Proving grounds in the streets Starving agents of death Blackened hearts that still bleed
The artist is consumed by emotions like passion, terror, and guilt. They see the impact of such feelings on society and on themselves

I like the misery I hate the company it brings I love fear on your face The taste (it's all become so clear)
The singer is attracted to the pain they feel or inflict on others, but hates the impact it has on their relationships. They enjoy seeing others afraid, and this realization is a turning point for them.

I hate I hate I hate I hate
The last lines are an expression of the singer's strong negative feelings
