[Verse 1 ]
I saw her dancin’ barefoot in the rain
Laughin’ like the thunder couldn’t touch her pain
Eyes like wildfire, burnin’ through the night
She called me a sinner, but I felt alright
There’s a crooked preacher down by the river bend
Said he’s seen the end times, said he’s seen it again
I keep my whiskey close, my secrets closer still
In a world full of heartaches, I bend, I break, I will
[Chorus ]
Goddesses, villains, and fools
We all got our scars and our rules
I’ve been broken, I’ve been bent
But I’m still chasin’ what the heart forgets
Goddesses, villains, and fools
Fallin’ hard for the wrong kind of truths
[Verse 2]
There’s a girl with roses tangled in her hair
Said she’d love him if he ever dared
To cross that line, to tell her the truth
But he hides in the shadows, he hides from his youth
The town sleeps quiet under the county lights
While I write my sins in the back of the night
Every laugh I stole, every tear I knew
Built me up just to tear me down too
[Chorus ]
Goddesses, villains, and fools
We all got our scars and our rules
I’ve been broken, I’ve been ben
T But I’m still chasin’ what the heart forgets
Goddesses, villains, and fools
Fallin’ hard for the wrong kind of truths
Goddesses, villains, and fools
We all got our scars and our rules
I’ve been broken, I’ve been bent
But I’m still chasin’ what the heart forgets
Goddesses, villains, and fools
Love leaves its marks, and I wear ‘em like jewels
