Villains Lyrics by Bookish Songs Collective

Burn It Down, Pt. 1

2024

[Verse 1]
We, the special few
We, who only knew
The worst that we could do
Hearts of iron flame
Masters of avoiding blame
We, who knew to play the game
And make it to the other side

[Pre-Chorus]
It's okay to be afraid
Long as you don't look our way
There's no room for fear or pain
(No, no, no)
Step aside if you can't take it
There are only few who make it
Gotta run, try not to break it
(If we live long enough)

[Chorus]
We'll become their villains
Make a killin'
On our bankruptcy of morals
We're immortal
At least that's what we think
No one knows our power
We devour everything in sight
If we live long enough to see the light
Oh we're villains overnight

(Oh we're villains)
(Villains)
(Oh, we're villains overnight)
(Villains)
(Villains)
(Oh, we're villains overnight)

[Verse 2]
Break a neck or stab a thigh
Tell a truth or tell a lie
Here, it's only do or die
Swallow down your bitter pill
Everybody wants a thrill
Lose a life or make a kill
Only if you've got the will

[Pre-Chorus]
It's okay to be afraid
If you're okay with being made
A cautionary tale
Wake up
Step aside if you can't bring it
There are only few who swing it
Baby, there's no time to wing it
(If we live long enough)

[Chorus]
We'll become their villains
Make a killin'
On our bankruptcy of morals
We're immortal
At least that's what we think
No one knows our power
We devour everything in sight
If we live long enough to see the light
Oh we're villains overnight

(Oh we're villains)
(Villains)
(Oh, we're villains overnight)
(Villains)
(Villains)
(Oh, we're villains overnight)

[Bridge]
Nothing scares us
Nothing backs us down
We're aware that we've got something that others would bow to
We are riders and we
Fly or die
No one is a sacrifice

[Chorus]
We'll become their villains
Make a killin'
On our bankruptcy of morals
We're immortal
At least that's what we think

We'll become their villains
Make a killin'
On our bankruptcy of morals
We're immortal
At least that's what we think
No one knows our power
We devour everything in sight
If we live long enough to see the light
Oh we're villains overnight

(Oh we're villains)
(Villains)
(Oh, we're villains overnight)
(Villains)
(Villains)
(Oh, we're villains overnight)
