Fallen Seraph - The Villain with a Mirror

[Intro] Ladies and gentlemen, please hide the evidence Tonight’s performance is sponsored by consequence [Verse 1] I made a spreadsheet of my flaws Then lost the file beneath applause I call it “research,” call it “growth” Anything but what I know I dodge the call, I dodge the room I alphabetize impending doom My little kingdom’s built on “fine” With unpaid bills in the foundation line I’m very brave behind a joke A royal flush of counterfeit smoke If truth walks in, I dim the hall Then blame the furniture for making me small [Pre-Chorus] I’ve got a lawyer in my head Who bills me hourly to misread Every warning, every sign As someone else’s design [Chorus] I’m the villain with a mirror And the mirror’s getting clearer I can’t blame the devil When the devil wears my shoes I keep choosing every trapdoor Then complain about the encore If I’m waiting for the truth to leave I’ve got some bad news [Verse 2] I said the bridge was burned by fate I brought the matches, showed up late I called my silence “being kind” It was just fear in a tasteful tie I give advice like loaded guns Then duck the things I haven’t done My moral compass spins for sport And points directly toward the shortcut I’m fluent in the art of “soon” A master of the changing room I try on every better self Then put them back upon the shelf [Pre-Chorus] I’ve got excuses by the crate Freshly sealed and climate-safe When accountability calls my name I answer, “Sorry, wrong shame” [Chorus] I’m the villain with a mirror And the mirror’s getting clearer I can’t blame the devil When the devil wears my shoes I keep choosing every trapdoor Then complain about the encore If I’m waiting for the truth to leave I’ve got some bad news [Bridge] Fine—cut the lights, remove the cape No grand escape, no clever tape I knew the answer yesterday I just preferred the price of play There’s no monster in the hall No hidden hand, no curse at all Just me, deciding what to do And finally admitting it was true [Breakdown] I said “not now” I said “not me” I said “the timing’s bad” I said “wait and see” Four little lies in a borrowed dress Still fit me like a Sunday best [Final Chorus] I’m the villain with a mirror And the mirror’s getting clearer I can’t blame the devil When the devil wears my shoes I keep choosing every trapdoor But I’m done demanding an encore If I’m waiting for the truth to leave I’ll be waiting years to lose I’m the punchline and the witness Still allergic to forgiveness But I’m taking off the costume And I’m facing what I choose No applause can make it painless No disguise can make it harmless If the truth has come to stay Then I guess I’ll let it through [Outro] Ladies and gentlemen, the culprit has been found She’s removing all defenses Please keep your receipts around 🎵 AI-generated music created with Suno. #AIMusic #RockMusic #RockRap #AlternativeRock #FemaleRock
