I have always wanted to be the bad guy, the one who schemes and plots the downfall of their foes
But I never felt like I could be
Always thinking I'm not fast enough to think three steps ahead, never clever enough to best the heroes
But the Lord knows how I craved the role.
Then it hit me, one warm winter night as I lay in bed.
I was always the villain.
I could never have been the hero.
I will never know the glory of slaying my enemies
For the enemy is myself.
