April Fish - The Villain Not Quite Bad Enough to Hate Lyrics

I am chasing you with piranha teeth
I will catch you to kiss you until you bleed
I am loving you intentionally
Mind over heart, protect me from feeling
Walk in front of me
I'm fear
Fearful that you might grow some wings

I'm not that vulnerable
No, wait
I could be
But I won't be that
I'll harden up my heart
So you won't start to get to me

I'll take everything you have to give
Spin around, and call it my own
Face me when you say your prayers
Pray you'll never see my face

I'm not that vulnerable
No, wait
I could be
But I won't be that
I'll harden up my heart so you won't start to get to me
My hunger for your tears won't wait
I starved away my own
I'll tell myself it's fair
Because you couldn't possibly care for me

I'm the once-upon-a-time
That never moved on from that line
The villain, not quite bad enough to hate
I'm the child who loves to hurt herself
Because she hurts too much to love

I won't let sensibilities take over my design
I'll tell myself it's all about you
'Cause I'm fine, I'm fine
I'm not that vulnerable
Well, maybe I could be
But I won't allow it
I'm over it
You will not close in on me
I've hardened up my heart to numb the sensitivity
I told myself it's fair
Because nobody could possibly care for me
