The Villain

(album: The Flood - 2010)

All the people that I once knew
That built cities in my mind
On the mountains and rivers
That I've left behind

And there lives the villain
Who sets me free
I'm waiting for you love
To come for me

And I hope you never see me again
You've ruined my heart
I hope I never see you again
You've ruined my heart

At least you don't write me
At least you don't call
At least you don't lend me
Any hope at all

At least you don't miss me
Or at least you don't give
At least you seem distant
Wherever you live

I hope I never see you again
You've ruined my heart
I hope I never see you again
You've ruined my heart

And of all the ways that it could be
I wish you'd fallen in love with me

Well I work in the morning
I work at the same
Fixing these melodies
To fit your name

Some years I will travel
Some years I will not
Maybe life will unravel
And leave me a second shot

I hope I never see you again
You've ruined my heart
I hope I never see you again
You've ruined my heart

And of all the ways that it could be
I wish you'd fallen in love with me
I wish you'd fallen in love with me
I wish you'd fallen in love with me
