I Chose You Over the World

Blue light under rain A siren in the shore wind I hear every name But I still hear yours more I kept a small town in a photograph I kept your laugh where the static cracked One wrong minute in a bathroom stall Turned my hands into a wrecking ball Every rewind left a scar in the glass Every saved second came asking me back At the lighthouse edge with the sky unfurled I learned what love can cost the world I chose you over the world And the world came down in waves Every street became a ghost Every promise learned your name If love is still a crime Let the storm say what it heard I will carry every ruin I chose you over the world Blackwell lights disappear in the rain Blue hair burning through all that pain I could be good, I could let fate win But I saw you die and I won't again The butterfly beats like a warning bell One small wing and a whole town fell I know forever is a heavy word But I chose you over the world I chose you over the world And the world came down in waves Every street became a ghost Every promise learned your name If love is still a crime Let the storm say what it heard I will carry every ruin I chose you over the world Maybe heroes let go Maybe saints turn away But I am only Max With a storm in my veins If the price is my sleep If the price is my soul I will pay it awake I will never let go I chose you over the world And the world came down in waves I can hear Arcadia crying But I still know who I saved If love is still a crime Let the storm say what it heard I will carry every ruin I chose you over the world Blue light under rain Your hand inside mine No more turning back This is our timeline
