If I told you the truth
Would you would you believe me
I know I said I'm through
I know I know you need me
Told me go to hell
All the stories that you tell
Told your mama I need help
Wouldn't make it by myself

I can be your hero
But imma be the villain tonight
I can be your hero
Tonight's not the night
Let me live my life right
Hero, I ain't gonna save you
Just be a hero
I can be your hero or your villain tonight

Hero or your villain tonight
I can be your hero or your villain tonight
I can be your hero or your villain
I can be your hero or your villain tonight

I ain't tryna lose
I know I know you doubt me
Say I'm over you
You threw my records off the shelf
All my clothes and all my belts
But my phone can call for help
Left my dog in the hotel

I can be your hero
But imma be the villain tonight
I can be your hero
Tonight's not the night
Let me live my life right
Hero, I ain't gonna save you
Just be a hero
I can be your hero or your villain tonight

It's time to move on, I've been a good guy
I gave you all I had and all you gave me was your lies
And all your friends tell your secrets, first one that they tell is me
I let the first one go but the second one ain't free
You wondered why I changed, it was you who changed me
I could've been your hero, but tonight you get the villain in me
You ain't ready, I'm closing the door
I gave you all and all you wanted was more

I can be your hero
But imma be the villain tonight
I can be your hero
Tonight's not the night
Let me live my life right
Hero, I ain't gonna save you
Just be a hero
I can be your hero or your villain tonight
