I Think I'm The Bad Guy

Lachlan Macleod, 2010

I think I’m the bad guy
Oh shit


What if I’m the one
Who is certain he is right
But the audience knows better?


What if I’m the one
Who shouts “Curse you, Hero!”
As I skulk back to my lair
And prepare
For the next assault?


What if I’m the one
Who knows that he should have her
But at the end she snubs him
And the audience breathes a sigh of relief?


What if I’m the winner
And it’s thought of
As a tragedy
A travesty
A shame?


What if I’m the one
Who is finally overcome
And the audience applauds?
