Right reasons

[Verse 1] (soft piano, low strings)

You touched the parts of me the light abandoned

Every shattered truth I handed you, you handled

You’re the sin I learned to breathe like air

A whispered promise pulling me somewhere

[Pre-Chorus] (choir begins, distant and haunting)

I’m not falling — I’m surrendering

To the dark that feels like home again

[Chorus] (strings rise, choir swells)

My soul went dark for all the right reasons

You held my shadows like a vow, not a weakness

If loving you is ruin, then let me be bleeding

My soul went dark —

But with you, it feels like meaning.

⸻

[Verse 2] (violins trembling underneath)

Your hands are stained, but they’re the ones that saved me

Danger dressed in something that won’t break me

They call you wicked — but I see truth instead

A villain’s heart that beats for me in red

[Pre-Chorus] (choir harmonies thicken)

I’m not falling — I’m surrendering

To the dark that feels like home again

⸻

✨ Bridge — Cathedral, emotional, aching

(Choir echoes her lines in ghostly harmony)

HER:

If I’m the price you pay for love,

Then take what’s left of me

CHOIR (soft):

Take what’s left of me

HER:

I’d walk through fire just to feel

The way you pull me into grief

CHOIR (rising):

Into grief

Into you

HER (belting):

You’re the darkness I choose —

And the truth I refuse to lose

⸻

✨ Final Chorus — Full strings + full choir, powerful and emotional

My soul went dark for all the right reasons

You held my shadows like a vow, not a weakness

If loving you is ruin, then let me be bleeding

My soul went dark —

But with you… it feels like meaning.

My soul went dark and now I stop pretending

You’re the storm I’d follow even to my ending

If I am yours in darkness, then that’s my freedom

My soul went dark —

For you. For love. For all the right reasons.
