S.J. Tucker - Not the Villain lyrics
[S.J. Tucker - Not the Villain lyrics]
True names, stopped clocks, wildest dreams
Time's up, darling let it be
Let it be
Who's the wicked queen and
Who's the princess here?
The truth is far from plain
Or how you think it should appear
I tell you there’s a spindle that
Is sure to prick my hand
Who is good and who is wicked
All depends on where you stand
You may call my truest name and
Fling it to the floor
But ticks and tocks from broken
Clocks can't hurt me anymore
Let’s be done with fairytales and
How they’re meant to end
The truth is that I lost my
Way and found it here again
Mustn't try to hide behind a
Clock no longer chiming
Fairyland will have it's due
Regardless of the timing
But, I am not the villain in this tale!
No, I am not the villain in this tale!
Call me what you like
I’ve been as kind as I can be
Set off the alarms and bring
The sky down upon me
You’d think this was the ending we
Both have come so far
It’ll break your heart how very
Much alike we are
I never meant to hide behind
A clock no longer chiming
Fairyland will have it's due
Regardless of the timing
But, I am not the villain in this tale!
No, I am not the villain in this tale!
Oh, I am not the villain in this tale!
I am not the villain in this tale!
If you want the very truth
I'll lay it down before you:
Everybody's got a story
If you want the very truth
It's here before your eyes:
Every witch was someone's princess
In some other once upon a time
(True names, stopped clocks, wildest dreams
Time's up, darling let it be)
Mustn't try to hide behind a
Clock no longer chiming
Fairyland will have it's due
Regardless of the timing
I fed you all my sweetness but
It wasn’t to your taste
I may have lost this battle
But, I will not be erased!
No, I am not the villain in this tale!
No, I am not the villain in this tale!
No, I am not the villain in this tale!
I am not the villain in this tale!
Oh, I wish you your wildest dreams
As I go to mine may we meet again within
A better story line
I wish you your wildest dreams
As I escape to mine may we meet again within
The perfect storyline
Time's up, darling let it be
Let it be
Who's the wicked queen and
Who's the princess here?
The truth is far from plain
Or how you think it should appear
I tell you there’s a spindle that
Is sure to prick my hand
Who is good and who is wicked
All depends on where you stand
You may call my truest name and
Fling it to the floor
But ticks and tocks from broken
Clocks can't hurt me anymore
Let’s be done with fairytales and
How they’re meant to end
The truth is that I lost my
Way and found it here again
Mustn't try to hide behind a
Clock no longer chiming
Fairyland will have it's due
Regardless of the timing
But, I am not the villain in this tale!
No, I am not the villain in this tale!
Call me what you like
I’ve been as kind as I can be
Set off the alarms and bring
The sky down upon me
You’d think this was the ending we
Both have come so far
It’ll break your heart how very
Much alike we are

A clock no longer chiming
Fairyland will have it's due
