Born Villain [Album Version] Lyrics
I could give you a dozen fresh cut, pink or red or white
I wonder if they knew what they would grow to become
I could give you a dozen fresh cut, pink or red or white
I wonder if they knew what they would grow to become
Become become become become
Be be become
You'll have to cut it down and burn me into splinters
Or I'll unwrap the string that was me from your finger
And I'll hang you in your bedroom burial ground
There is a taste for blood and it's something deep inside
There is a taste for blood and it's deep inside
Become become become become
Be be become
I don't ever want God to hear our screams and mistake them for prayers
And you know I'm loaded but not which chamber
Touch me and I'll go click click click click click
Click click click click click
Click click click click click
There is a taste for blood and it's something deep inside
There is a taste for blood and it's deep inside
Become become become become
Be be become
And you know I'm loaded but not which chamber
Touch me and I'll go click click click click click
Click click click click click
Click click click click click
I'm born villain, don't pretend to be a victim
I'm born villain, don't pretend to be a victim
I'm born villain, don't pretend to be a victim
I'm born villain, don't pretend to be a victim
I'm born villain, don't pretend to be a victim
I'm born villain, don't pretend to be a victim
[Submitting this, as the "Born Villain" lyrics listed on this page are for the track "Overneath The Path Of Mistery"
I wonder if they knew what they would grow to become
I could give you a dozen fresh cut, pink or red or white
I wonder if they knew what they would grow to become
Be be become
Or I'll unwrap the string that was me from your finger
And I'll hang you in your bedroom burial ground
There is a taste for blood and it's deep inside
Be be become
And you know I'm loaded but not which chamber
Touch me and I'll go click click click click click
Click click click click click
Click click click click click
There is a taste for blood and it's deep inside
Be be become
Touch me and I'll go click click click click click
Click click click click click
Click click click click click
I'm born villain, don't pretend to be a victim
I'm born villain, don't pretend to be a victim
I'm born villain, don't pretend to be a victim
I'm born villain, don't pretend to be a victim
I'm born villain, don't pretend to be a victim

Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
The song begins to wrap up the album, as he has finally gotten rid of the confusion from the circumstances of his life. He realises what he thinks he should be, and also acknowledges who he is.
Although, for an individual listening to the song, it could be interchangeable to fit your own personal transformation into who you think you should be.
Its all about being who you think you should be, not who other people think you should be; and you shouldn't care who other people think you should be either.
I just don't get what 'Im born villain, don't pretend to be a victim' means. He said in an interview that no one is actually born a villain, that you become what you are.
"I could give you a dozen fresh cut, pink or red or white I wonder if they knew what they would grow to become"
could start out as a good thing but in the end we dont know what to expect. if he were to give the flowers we could assume he "is" the flowers
You'll have to cut it down and burn me into splinters (what he became) Or I'll unwrap the string that was me from your finger(you control me) And I'll hang you in your bedroom burial ground (one of us needs to end this)
"There is a taste for blood and it's something deep inside There is a taste for blood and it's deep inside"
everyone has some sort of evil nature, its blood deep
"I'm born villain, don't pretend to be a victim"
everyones guilty of being human
