Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And found your scars
From all the burns
I looked inside your mind
And saw the lies
Had made them worse
I should have told you
No matter what
But I couldn't save you
If you didn't want me to
No I could not
I always thought oh
That I knew all about you
I thought oh
That I knew all about you
But you never told
Your whole life your soul
Had been slowly stolen from you
You never told you never told
And I never knew
After all this time
I see you like I've
Never seen you before
And finally now
I understand how
We got where we are
I should have told you
That I would have loved you
No matter what
But I couldn't save you
If you didn't want me to
No I could not
I always thought oh
That I knew all about you
I thought oh
That I knew all about you
But you never told
Your whole life your soul
Had been slowly stolen from you
You never told you never told
And I never knew
Finally now
I understand how
We got where we are
In the song "Supervillain" by SandMarx, the lyrics speak to a relationship where one person discovers the scars and lies of the other. Through looking both inside their heart and their mind, it's suggested that the person was able to gain a much deeper understanding of their partner. However, this understanding came too late since the relationship is already in a place where it's difficult to advance or save. The theme of regret is prominent in the song, with the singer expressing their frustration at not being able to save the person they love, even if they wanted to. The lyrics reveal that the singer believed they had a solid understanding of their partner, only to find out that there was a lot more to them than they thought.
The lines "But you never told / Your whole life your soul / Had been slowly stolen from you" are especially powerful in suggesting that the root of the problem stems from a deep sense of personal pain and hurt that the partner was keeping concealed. The song speaks to the importance of communication in relationships, and the consequences that can come from not opening up to the people we love. It's a poignant reminder that sometimes, we don't know as much as we think we do, and that true understanding and compassion requires a willingness to listen and learn.
