LYRICS
A life laid out in front of me
With my hands tied behind my back
I've lost control of the wheel
My visions turned to black
Predetermination of what I'm meant to be
Your manipulation has taken over me
Nothing but a puppet that's hanging from your string
But now my eyes are open and I am breaking free
I need to stop lying to myself
Because it's got me feeling overwhelmed
I won't fit inside these shoes you made for me
I've got nothing to lose so please set me free
The picture perfect mask you hide behind
This role that you've been playing for the longest time
It took awhile but now I see all the vile shit inside your mind
You've had your grip on me for far too long
Thought you had pure intentions but I was dead wrong
The day I forget my passion is the day I won't know who I am
Now I regret every second that I spent with you
So I need to stop lying to myself
Because it's got me feeling overwhelmed
I won't fit inside these shoes you made for me
I've got nothing to lose so please set me free
I'll never walk down the road you paved
You won't dig my grave
I need to stop lying to myself
Because it's got me feeling overwhelmed
I won't fit inside these shoes you made for me
I've got nothing to lose so please set me free
I've got nothing to lose so please set me free

If you've seen the movie Coco, you have an idea of the premise for this song. A child that has a passion for something but it's suppressed by family and another 'life' is forced upon him as a predetermined path they have to take just because.
We had fun filming this video, hope you enjoy it / dig the new album! \m/
I loved this video, the music too, the album too, and you too haha, brazil fan
Keep It up villian of a story kickass music looking forward to new music and albums
I love it
I know how that feels like. I have a friend who is a bassist with a big passion for music, but his parents forced him to do something and claim that "music won't bring him anywhere." They even cut his bass strings. Such cruelty. Great song btw!
Guys, this song resonates with me so badly, and I legitly cry everytime I hear this..
For those asking, Christian will be playing guitar for a few songs if we were to play them live. This being Decay, Without You, and this song.
Villain of the Story that’s fucking sick🤘🏻
@@solidsgaming1089 very sick. I just heard the whole 2nd album by these guys. This album is fuckin badass.
Best band ever 💙
Y'all r so fucking amazing
I'd be lying to myself if I said this band isn't badass!
You guys are so underrated and it makes me mad😠
Mark Rowe why's that?
@@ashshenah7861 there way to good to be UNNOTICED and I know these guys will go far
Mark Rowe true true they brought back the old good fucking music
Yeah these guys are up there with three days grace and skillet in my opinion
Christian looks amazing with the guitar 7n7
As somebody who was later raised by psychopaths I can feel this song deep in my soul. I won't go the way the family wants me to, I'll pave my own path, away from them. Breaking free and do what I want to, not what they allowed me to do or laid out for me.
Give that truth up😮. Keep going. Follow what your made for
😮Hey,I'm a black man lover this shit glad I found this group I play guitar myself.villan keep it up
by far one of the best songs you guys have created . the vibe the passion the jamming heading banging flow of this is amazing and should be #1

The best thing that ever occurred in my life was missing school when I discovered Born Of Osiris' The Discovery.

Gonna listen to the whole album before sleeping cause that was freaking awesome !
the video was too relatable for me. My own words are getting stuck inside my head.
OMG. I lost touch with metal for a while but this is bringing me back, I've always loved the more indie bands and you guys are the best out there right now imo!
Like....you need to be super famous....you just deserve it so much
@ 2:30 it hits you different! You guys are killing it!
Just ran into this and this is dope
The ending made me sob!! I love the song, I love the video, and I fucking love you guys!!
I love this style of Metalcore. This, Asking Alexandria, Down & Dirty, Of Mice & Men, I See Stars, The Devil Wears Prada. It's my favorite style of song.
This video is filmed so well! Christian did a great job with this. And it's an amazing song to go with it as well! Was a surprise to see Christian on the guitar here too. I really like Zak's energy behind the kit too.
YAAAASSS THIS SONG IS THE BEST!!!
This band is getting more better!
This album is so amazing! I listen this album when:
I wake up
Go to school
Come to home
I play
And when I try to sleep every feaking day. Favourite album so far😍
Wow. I loved this song. Its exactly how i feel. 💚
this band is so underrated.
This song is just perfect. For me this is one of the best songs I have downloaded, and I have more than 500...
Can't wait for you guys to come in Montreal and/or Ottawa! Like I'm hoping to be the first one to buy some of those tickets 🤩🤘🏻
I would dance to this with tears down my cheeks in my room if i were in middle school, awesome work!!!
Amazing!!! You guys will bring new light to the world of rock...keep killing it...thanks so much for the beautiful music.........
By far this is my favourite type of rock!

Awesome song!
I love it. You should play in Tucson, AZ sometime.
My favorite music by far, the 1:47 part is just one of the best metal part of all time ! Incredible
Awesome......villain of the story👍
I've always like your guys music once one of my old coworkers showed me one of your songs. He even used to play in the band with you guys. I'm sad that I missed the opportunity I had to meet all of you. It would of been a blast to see the band play in person
It deserves so much more than this. Wonderful ❤️
