lyrics

i am shipwrecked
though i lit a match
in the middle of the storm last night
i thought i could keep us both warm
but i had been warned

in isolation it felt nice
but we were
two cold bodies passing in the night
and i would call your name a thousand times
just to have your eyes on me

and we are divided
and i'll conquer you all
i have decided
that you were the villain afterall
the villain afterall

i don't want to
but i do
i'm outside myself
staring down at you
i am scared but i am trying
darling i am lying
i am lying next to you
when your power goes out
when your power goes out

and we are divided
and i'll conquer you all
i have decided
that you were the villain afterall

and we are divided
and i'll conquer you all
i have decided
that you were the villain afterall
the villain afterall
