So I've been screaming my heart out
and I've cried myself dry;
what's the point of it all,
building a house in the sky,
being so eager to fly?
It's a long way to fall,
reaching for nothing and all.

I miss you so bad I could die,
it's raining on the moon tonight,
it's blowing in the sky
and I'm trying so hard just to find
a decent melody to sing
to keep myself alive.

I'm trying hard, trying so hard not to fall
To fall, fall, fall

I'm trying hard
not to lose in the end
what I had at the start
but I'm missing my friends
and it tears me apart,
God, how it's breaking my heart!

I'm waving my guns all around,
trying to shoot me down
but earth is nowhere to be found.
And now I'm drifting away on my own;
I will die up here alone,
there will be no coming home

Can you tell me now,
tell me what's the point of it all?
What's the point of it all?
Can you tell me now?
Tell me what's the point of it all!

I miss you so bad I could die,
it's raining on the moon tonight
and it's blowing in the sky.
And I'm trying so hard just to find
a decent melody to sing,
to keep myself alive.

I'm trying hard,
I'm trying so hard not to fall.
To fall.

I'm trying hard
not to lose in the end
what I had at the start
but I'm missing my friends
and it tears me apart,
God, how it's breaking my heart!

THE VILLAINY - A House In The Sky - Demo

Tired of tears I tattooed an umbrella over my heart,
it was bleeding through the whisky band aid thad I had on.
Science tells us love is just a trick to keep us going
but I don't seem to go nowhere, still my heart's over flowing.

Oh my, here goes; my heart explodes when I hold you.

Mesmerized I memorized the poem that you wrote me
and late at night in different light, I saw the words so clearly.
It's written in the books we've read, it's painted in our portraits,
it's hidden in our weary heads, it's right there on our doorstep.

Oh my, here goes; my heart explodes when I hold you.

You did the best you could
To make the most of a lot less
But I screwed up again
I screwed up and made a mess

But no-one will love you more
No-one will need you more

Go tell your heart

You did the best you could
To make the most of what was left
For all the shit I pulled
I'll do my best to make amends

'Cos no-one will love you more
No-one will need you more

Go tell your heart

Before it breaks and falls apart

THE VILLAINY - Go Tell Your Heart - Demo

What a life. What a life.
I never was a quitter 'til I tried, I never was a hero 'til I lied.

All the things you got for free, opportunities that rained on you;
they'd cost me a fortune I never could afford.

So I became a villain, I roamed the darkest streets at night;
planning your downfall, hiding from the light.

What a life. What a life.
I never was a quitter 'til I tried, I never was a hero 'til I lied.

Oh, the name I never had was painted in the deepest caves;
yours filled cathedrals while mine was filling graves.

What a lie. What a lie.
I never was a quitter 'til I tried, I never was a hero 'til I lied.

THE VILLAINY - The Villain (Demo)

Burning brightly, you my Miss Golightly; close your eyes.
Let your brain do all the thinking for you, hearts aside.
Slow and steady, you're so far from ready, I have found.
Keep on lying, while your heart is drying on the ground.

Now I understand what it meant to take your hand,
how my heart was a pawn in your plan.

Pour another, let's just lose each other for a while.
Hide your feelings like the coward's kneeling to the lies.

Moonlit river makes me shine and shiver to the bone.
A view with bars will keep you free from scars where you roam.

Now I understand what it meant to take your hand,
how my heart was a pawn in your plan.

Pour another, let's just lose each other for a while.
Hide your feelings like the coward's kneeling to the lies.

Now I understand what it meant to take your hand,
how my heart was a pawn in your plan.

Where The Beaten Go

THE VILLAINY - Where The Beaten Go

DEBUT SINGLE "WHERE THE BEATEN GO" OUT JULY 29TH ON MAN IN THE MOON RECORDS/WARNERS ADA!

info@thevillainy.org

The Villainy formed at the tail end of 2013 and quickly gained attention online for the quality of Singer Ted Morris' lyric writing abilities and the incendiary musical backing of Henrik Palm on Guitar, Anton Svensson on Bass and Marcus Carter on Drums.

Soon the BBC’s website ‘Fresh On the Net’ picked up on the band which led to the group touring England twice in 2014 whilst regularly gigging in Sweden where most of the band are from.

These successes brought the group to the attention of Nick Stewart, the man who signed U2 to Island Records, and in 2015 Nick signed The Villainy to his management company.

‘Where The Beaten Go’ is the bands anthemic debut single with echoes of The National, Springsteen and The Killers, being released on newly formed ‘Man In The Moon Records’ via Warner ADA. The Villainy are set for a UK tour in July, along with festival appearances.
