Abby Carpenter - The Villain

Found your letter in the closet a couple months ago
Every day I think it over; it's what's kept my vibe so low
I'm losing sleep, can't help but think of all the times I wronged you so
Yeah I'm afraid I fucked you up more than I'll probly ever know

I lost a friend, I lost a good friend, someone who really cared
Who reached out despite the words in flight that I unfairly shared
I lost myself in all the revenge, and in shame, I tried to say
That you were the villain, but you were a player in the game

Back in high school I thought I was mature beyond my years
But lookin' back I only see that I was guided by my fears
I let myself's untreated mental health decide the way I dug you: into a ditch
I left the fish washed up and covered in the mud

I lost a friend, I lost a good friend, someone who really cared
Who reached out despite the words in flight that I unfairly shared
I lost myself in all the regrets, and in shame, I tried to say
That you were the villain, but you were a player in the game
Yeah, you weren't the villain, you were just a player in the game
No, you weren't the villain, you were just a player in, a player in, a player in the game

You know I haven't wrote a love song since the one I wrote for you
And it's a shame 'cause I have much more now that I'm afraid to lose
I hear a voice sayin' I'm too intense. I'm an over-the-top being
Now I'm ashamed of feelin' love, of feelin' pain, of feeling anything...
