Rest of This Life by BillyBobGwyn - Zona

Lyrics

Verse 1

You came into my chaos like a calm, burning flame,

Saw the cracks in my armor, loved me just the same.

I was a wildfire drifting, a storm without a shore,

Till your heartbeat lit a lighthouse I couldn’t ignore.

And for the first time in my broken history—

I felt worthy of the love you gave to me.

Verse 2

We walked through nights that tried to tear us apart,

But you held me like a vow carved straight into your heart.

You saw the man inside the mess, the truth beneath the scars—

Loved the darkness in me without dimming your stars.

Every fight, every bruise, every trembling breath—

Just sharpened the promise: we’d love past death.

Chorus

I choose you for the rest of this life—

Through the fire, through the ache, through the endless night.

You’re the calm in my bones, the storm I survive,

The reason my heart stayed alive.

If forever’s a war, then I’ll stand and fight—

’Cause I choose you…

For the rest of this life.

Verse 3

I see a home in the softness of your eyes,

A future in your smile, a world where nothing dies.

You’re the hand that steadies mine when I shake,

The warmth I run to when the whole earth breaks.

And every dream I’ve ever buried deep down—

You lift it up, turn it around.

Verse 4

Now I see children in the silhouette of dawn,

A family rising from the battles we’ve won.

Your laugh is a hymn, your touch is a truth—

You made me better, made me brand-new.

I swear my soul learned how to breathe

The moment you chose me.

Chorus

I choose you for the rest of this life—

Through the fire, through the ache, through the endless night.

You’re the calm in my bones, the storm I survive,

The reason my heart stayed alive.

If forever’s a war, then I’ll stand and fight—

’Cause I choose you…

For the rest of this life.

Bridge (soft → explosive metalcore)

I’ve been broken, I’ve been lost,

Paid love’s price, counted the cost—

But with you, I found a meaning that cuts like light…

I’ll walk every shadow

If you’re by my side.

Final Chorus (massive, soaring, heavy)

I choose you for the rest of this life—

In the thunder, in the calm, in the sacrifice.

You’re the mercy I needed, the truth I found,

The one who turned my whole world around.

If forever’s a climb, then I’ll rise and fight—

’Cause I choose you…

Every day, every breath—

For the rest of this life.
