The Victim Lyrics

Cover art for The Victim lyrics by Dead Poetic

it is an awesome song.

"i'll let you stand on your own again while your playing the victim."

i'm pretty sure that means when your on your own you are totally vulnerable. you are the victim. when he says, "i'll let" that's future tense so obviolsy it hasn't happened yet.

"If I’m the villain, well then take me all away"

i'm pretty sure that's him saying that he doesn't want to be the villian. he doesn't want or mean to hurt anyone

"If I had the blade, I’d cut the strings down from your limbs, and let you get away"

like if it was up to him he wouldn't hurt the perosn he was talking about. only it wasn't up to him. and he wasn't the one resposible for the other person's pain.

and yeah, it does sound like he's in a bad relationship. and he sees the girl as the toxin, and that's poisoning him so maybe he is the villian, but he doesn't want to be. like bitterness is making him something he's not.
