Vices & Virtues

What's a hero to a villain
 Other than its perfect half?
 You can deny the tension
 But baby, it's rising and I won't back down
 Is that flush because of battle
 Or am I just in your head?
 You seem distracted
 Are we still fighting or am I in your bed instead?
 What do you see when you look at me?
 Am I the love of your life or your enemy?
 Keep your friends close, but hold me closer to you
 And if I'm the villain
 Then you better start running
 'Cause you won't last long if you're up against me
 Don't stop to think about what it would feel like
 With your lips on mine
 I see you checkin' on my moves
 Better stop 'cause you're 'bout to lose
 One quick hit and I leave you breathless
 Never thought you could look so helpless
 Woah-oh-woah-oh
 Woah-oh
 Why deny your admiration?
 Is it lust? Infatuation?
 You are so easy to predict
 My love's a drug and you're an addict
 I can hear your pounding heartbeat
 You were mine right from the start
 See, every hero needs a villain
 But I don't need you
 You think you're so much better
 When you're really not all that
 You keep on trying to convince yourself
 It's a game of mouse and cat
 When in reality you've fallen
 And it's very clear to see
 You like to lock away your feelings
 But I hold the key, woah
 And if I'm the villain
 They better start running
 'Cause you won't last long if you're up against me
 Don't stop to think about what it would feel like
 With your lips on mine
 I see you checkin' on my moves
 Better stop 'cause you're 'bout to lose
 One quick hit and I leave you breathless
 Never thought you could look so helpless
 Woah-oh-oh
 Woah-oh
 Woah-oh
 Woah-oh
 Woah-oh
