Vices & Virtues

What's a hero to a villain Other than its perfect half? You can deny the tension But baby, it's rising and I won't back down Is that flush because of battle Or am I just in your head? You seem distracted Are we still fighting or am I in your bed instead? What do you see when you look at me? Am I the love of your life or your enemy? Keep your friends close, but hold me closer to you And if I'm the villain Then you better start running 'Cause you won't last long if you're up against me Don't stop to think about what it would feel like With your lips on mine I see you checkin' on my moves Better stop 'cause you're 'bout to lose One quick hit and I leave you breathless Never thought you could look so helpless Woah-oh-woah-oh Woah-oh Why deny your admiration? Is it lust? Infatuation? You are so easy to predict My love's a drug and you're an addict I can hear your pounding heartbeat You were mine right from the start See, every hero needs a villain But I don't need you You think you're so much better When you're really not all that You keep on trying to convince yourself It's a game of mouse and cat When in reality you've fallen And it's very clear to see You like to lock away your feelings But I hold the key, woah And if I'm the villain They better start running 'Cause you won't last long if you're up against me Don't stop to think about what it would feel like With your lips on mine I see you checkin' on my moves Better stop 'cause you're 'bout to lose One quick hit and I leave you breathless Never thought you could look so helpless Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh Woah-oh Woah-oh Woah-oh
