Your Villain from Boundless by Amelia Snow

Guess I'm the headline in your play,
"Evil Ex Who Got Away"
You spin that tale like Shakespeare's ghost
But babe, your tragedy's a joke at most

You love the crowd, you love the scene
Cue the tears and violins
While I'm backstage, rolling eyes
At every line you dramatize

I'm the villain in your fable,
Scripted lies served at your table
You needed dirt to make you clean
So I got cast as mean, obscene
I'm the punchline, I'm the sin
The devil wrapped in flawless skin
You wrote me sharp, so here's the sting—
I'll wear your villain's crown and grin

I see you flex your martyr role
Like heartbreak's some Olympic goal
But here's the twist you won't admit:
You lit the fuse and threw the fit

You say I gaslit all your scars
But girl, I just dodged your drama stars
You played the saint, I played along
But now I'm gone—cue your theme song

I'm the villain in your fable,
Scripted lies served at your table
You needed dirt to make you clean
So I got cast as mean, obscene
I'm the punchline, I'm the sin
The devil wrapped in flawless skin
You wrote me sharp, so here's the sting—
I'll wear your villain's crown and grin

Put me on trial in your court of tears
Sell your truth, stoke all your fears
But fairy tales get dull with time
And I won't rot inside your rhyme

Oh no, I'm not the broken toy
I'm the storm you can't destroy
So toast to your dramatic spin—
I'll raise my glass and drink your spin

I'm the villain in your script
So venomous and tailor-fit
You wore the mask, I took the fall
Congratulations, queen of gall
But if I'm bad and you're the win—
Then I'll wear your villain's crown and grin
