You can play the hero I'll be the villain I just want you to know There will be a killin' You spread your filth about me Curse and run down my name While rumors and lies all about me I play it off like a game For your tongue only spits torment Affliction a nuisance such pain Your truths so contrary to fact I am the end of your reign For I am the smasher of hopes I am destroyer of dreams I am the cancer of faith Wrecker of all good things You can play the hero I'll be the villain I just wanted you to know There will be a killin' Tell them I am the vermin Dreaded horror of night Cast your shadows of doubt For soon it will all come to light Your mouths spills only deception For lying you have such a knack Inside you there lies such a darkness But I am the dark side of black I am the smasher of hopes I am destroyer of dreams I am the cancer of faith Slayer of all good things You can play the hero I'll be the villain I just wanted you to know There will be a killin' For I am the smasher of hopes I am destroyer of dreams I am the cancer of faith Wrecker of all good things I am the smasher of hopes I am destroyer of dreams I am the cancer of faith Slayer of all good things
