"a villain and a victim should never be the same person”


You think you know me, but you have no clue
The sorrows that crushed me, the pain I’ve been through
I was never asked to be this way, but the abuse was too much
The horror turned my soul into the enemies I would crush

Now I’m just like my abusers
I hope you’re happy now
You hate me for how I’ve been treated
but the abuse you allow

(Chorus)

You never seen from my point of view
I suffered in silence, but you hardly even knew
When I turned to evil, and committed the crime
It was already too late; you didn’t help me in time

I cried and suffered, but you didn’t even care
But when I turned the table, all I got was an angry stare
I tried to ask for help, but you would always shut me out
Now I pay the price, for all the hatred that you doubt

(Verse)
I was treated unfairly, and now it’s my turn
You failed to show concern, so now you must learn
It didn’t have to be the hard way, but that’s what you chose
You never reached out to mend me, and for that my heart froze

I have been through it all, and cried every night
The torture consumed me and I couldn’t win the fight
The horror took over and invaded my soul
Your care was never shown, so now you pay the toll

(Chorus)

You never seen from my point of view
I suffered in silence, but you hardly even knew
When I turned to evil, and committed the crime
It was already too late; you didn’t help me in time

I cried and suffered, but you didn’t even care
But when I turned the table, all I got was an angry stare
I tried to ask for help, but you would always shut me out
Now I pay the price, for all the hatred that you doubt
(Bridge)

The torment took over, my contentment started to slip
The screams were disregarded, as I felt every whip
You cared when it was over, but you should of cared before
I encountered the beatings; my body was aching and sore

You never took the warning for what was to come
The future seemed empty, and inside I became numb
My pain would always worsen and you didn’t stop the hate
You only showed anger, when it was already too late

(Chorus)

You never seen from my point of view
I suffered in silence, but you hardly even knew
When I turned to evil, and committed the crime
It was already too late; you didn’t help me in time

I cried and suffered, but you didn’t even care
But when I turned the table, all I got was an angry stare
I tried to ask for help, but you would always shut me out
Now I pay the price, for all the hatred that you doubt
