Right or love

Verse 1

We’re standing in the kitchen, quiet like a storm

Words hanging in the air, but they’re already worn

You say I never listen, I say you never bend

Somewhere in the middle, we forgot how to mend

Pre-Chorus

Every sentence turns into a line we draw

And every line just keeps us where we are

Chorus

Do you wanna be right, or do you wanna be loved?

‘Cause we’re losing both when we push and we shove

Is winning this fight really worth what it costs?

If I hold my ground, am I losing us?

We can stand here all night tearing each other apart

Or lay down our pride, let go, and restart

Tell me what matters when it comes down to us—

Do you wanna be right… or do you wanna be loved?

⸻

Verse 2

I know every trigger, you know every scar

We don’t need matches, we already spark

We speak in defenses, we don’t hear the truth

We’re both pointing fingers, but there’s three aimed back at you

Pre-Chorus

We’re so good at proving who’s to blame

But we’re forgetting why we stayed

Chorus

Do you wanna be right, or do you wanna be loved?

‘Cause we’re losing both when we push and we shove

Is winning this fight really worth what it costs?

If I hold my ground, am I losing us?

We can stand here all night tearing each other apart

Or lay down our pride, let go, and restart

Tell me what matters when it comes down to us—

Do you wanna be right… or do you wanna be loved?

⸻

Bridge (soft, stripped back)

What if we’re both wrong?

What if that’s okay?

What if love’s not perfect…

But it’s worth the stay?

We don’t need a verdict

We don’t need a win

We just need to remember

Where we’ve always been

⸻

Final Chorus (lift / emotional)

I don’t wanna be right if it means you’re gone

I’d rather be here where we both belong

We don’t have to solve every broken part

Just hold on to love when it gets this hard

We can stand here together instead of alone

Put down the armor, come back home

When everything’s breaking, when push comes to shove—

I don’t wanna be right… I just wanna be loved
