Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We met where the city forgets to breathe,
Neon confessions under our teeth.
Your love was a halo with a rusted edge,
Mine was a prayer I couldn’t quite pledge.
You pull me in like a beautiful crime,
I lose my name just to borrow your time.
If I’m a spark and you’re gasoline
We burn so clean in a bad routine.
[Pre-Chorus]
I feel the fault lines under the floor,
Still I run to you wanting more.
If it’s poison, why’s it paradise?
If it’s wrong, why’s it feel like life?
[Chorus]
So take the light with the shadows it casts,
Hold the ache and the aftermath.
Love isn’t pure, but it’s real in my hands,
A broken compass that still understands.
I’ll take the whole of you, sharp and sweet,
Count the cost, still choose the heat.
If this is storm and salvation combined
I’ll take the net of the night.
[Post-Chorus]
I’ll take it, I’ll take it, the net of the night.
I’ll take it, I’ll take it if it keeps us alive.
[Verse 2]
Your silence cuts like a velvet blade,
Then you kiss like you’re trying to be brave.
We build on a fault and we call it a home,
Two tuned hearts in a tremor-tone.
You’re the calm and the chaos I can’t outrun,
The setting moon and the rising sun.
And I’ve seen the worst, I’ve tasted the test
Still I want you at my best.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I know the dark you don’t speak aloud,
I know the thunder inside your cloud.
But when you touch me, the doubt gets thin
Like the world ends, and we begin.
[Chorus]
So take the light with the shadows it casts,
Hold the ache and the aftermath.
Love isn’t pure, but it’s real in my hands,
A broken compass that still understands.
I’ll take the whole of you, sharp and sweet,
Count the cost, still choose the heat.
If this is storm and salvation combined
I’ll take the net of the night.
[Bridge]
If love is a ledger, let’s total the scars,
Add all the mercy, subtract who we are.
We’re not a fairytale, more like a flare,
Bright in the moment, gone in the air.
But I would rather be wrecked by the truth
Than safe in a lie that doesn’t move.
So if you’re the ocean and I’m the tide
Let me pull you to the other side.
[Break]
Take the light, take the shadows,
Take the hurt, and the halo.
[Final Chorus]
So take the light with the shadows it casts,
Hold the ache and the aftermath.
Love isn’t pure, but it’s real in my hands,
A broken compass that still understands.
I’ll take the whole of you, sharp and sweet,
Count the cost, still choose the heat.
If this is storm and salvation combined
I’ll take the net of the night.
[Outro]
I’ll take it, the net of the night.
Even when it cuts
Even when it bites.
