I was the Hero

Dark pop with cinematic synths, haunting pianos, slow-burning, intensity chorus, Deep, pulsing bass, eerie string sections, dramatic drum hits, distorted electric guitars in the climax

(Verse 1)
I wore the armor, I bore the scars,
Fought for the light, now I stand in the dark.
I swore I’d never be like them,
Now I see it in my reflection.

(Pre-Chorus)
Every choice, every lie,
Built the throne where I now reside.
I tried to fight it, I tried to run,
But in the end, I've become...

(Chorus)
The villain in your story now,
A king with a tarnished crown.
I was the hero, I swore an oath,
Now I’m the monster you fear the most.
No redemption, no way out,
Just a villain wearing doubt.

(Verse 2)
The weight of power, it changed my hands,
A slow decay, a cruel demand.
You can’t stay golden in a world so grey,
Even angels fall someday.

(Pre-Chorus)
Every step, every sin,
Built the prison I’m trapped within.
I tried to fight it, I tried to run,
But in the end, I've become...

(Chorus - Bigger & Darker)
The villain in your story now,
A king with a tarnished crown.
I was the hero, I swore an oath,
Now I’m the monster you fear the most.
No redemption, no way out,
Just a villain wearing doubt.

(Bridge - Emotional Climax)
Burn my name, rewrite the past,
Make me the nightmare that will always last.
I never meant to fall this way,
But heroes die, and villains stay...

(Final Chorus - Grand & Haunting)
The villain in your story now,
A king with a tarnished crown.
I was the hero, I swore an oath,
Now I’m the monster you fear the most.
No redemption, no way out,
Just a villain wearing doubt.

(Outro - Fading into the Shadows)
I tried to fight it, I tried to run,
But in the end, I’ve become...
