Long nights, wrong turns Heard a lot, had to learn World loud, truth quiet Everybody talking, I stayed defiant Lines drawn, doors shut Time tested everything we touched Pressure high, patience thin Still standing here — let me tell you then When it all came down to one I didn’t flinch, I didn’t run I still chose you When it got heavy Still chose you When it wasn’t steady Through the noise, through the doubt When the lights all flickered out Every time, every truth I still chose you Miles wide, clocks wrong Had to be strong for too long Talk cheap, love real Only one thing I could feel No crowd, no applause Just conviction, no pause They asked why, I knew how I’m standing on that answer now Didn’t hesitate Didn’t look back I still chose you No conditions Still chose you My decision Every road, every truth Led me back, back to you No excuse, no review I still chose you Still chose you Still chose you
