You're the villain in the comic tale.
I'm the ex hero, drowning in ale.
Always we brought out the worst in eachother
T o g e t h e r .
You're fading away, in a lonely frame.
Page 48 villain, you own no name.
Always we contradicted eachother
T o g e t h e r .
Second to last page, I've no one to save.
Very last page, and you're still afraid.
Always we backtrack the glorious days
T o g e t h e r .
But life isn't really a comic book.
And I'll never retrieve what of me that you took.
All I'm trying is to make things look
B e t t e r .
I'm the ex hero
And you're what I lost
