Of the track, Darling says: “Villain is about learning to be okay with being the ‘bad guy’ in someone else’s story.  For some people it is easier to blame others than to take responsibility for their role in their own suffering, and this song is my way of letting those relationships go instead of trying to continuously fix them. Once you learn that universal truth that not everyone will understand you and your heart, it is easier to let go.”
