Lyrics

Verse

I built a wall from midnight songs,

To keep you safe when the world went wrong.

Every scream I swallowed whole,

Was just to shield your growing soul.

Chorus

Jayce, you’re the light in my riot,

The calm in my storm.

I’ll hold the line, stay quiet,

Just to keep you warm.

Verse

You laughed and cracked the ceiling wide,

Turned my wreckage into pride.

I’d burn the map, redraw the sky,

If it meant you’d never cry.

Chorus

Jayce, you’re the light in my riot,

The calm in my storm.

I’ll hold the line, stay quiet,

Just to keep you warm.

Bridge

Let the world throw its blame,

I’ll take the hit, I’ll wear the name.

But you — you rise, you run, you shine,

And every scar of mine is fine.

Chorus

Jayce, you’re the light in my riot,

The calm in my storm.

I’ll hold the line, stay quiet,

Just to keep you warm.
