~Heroes and villains~

I tried to help people, but it always seemed to fail.

Like nobody wanted me to try, like they were putting up a veil.

I tried to be good, I tried to be great.

But being the good guy turned out to not be my Fate.

I started to hate people instead, I started to despise.

So I put on a persona, and I put on a disguise.

I ended up hurting people much more than I thought I could ever do,

And people loathed me, like I was just a loose screw.

I tried to be the hero once, I tried to be strong.

But instead I was weak, and it made me the villain of my story all along.
