Not What We Asked For

Weaver of Moments

I didn’t seek the fire, didn’t crave the flame

But still it came, and called my name

I saw your eyes through smoke and dust

And something in me learned to trust

We were just shadows passing by

Two broken hearts too proud to cry

But when the ground began to shake

You held me close— I didn’t break

I didn’t come here lookin’ for a fight

But pain got loud in the dead of night

We built a bond from a world torn down

No crowns, no glory — just battlegrounds

I ain’t a hero, never tried to be

But love showed up in the war with me

Not for fame, not for some grand parade

Just wanted to feel... that we weren’t afraid

I didn’t mean to fall into the fight

But danger taught me how to hold you tight

Your heartbeat louder than the sirens cry

And I knew... I'm not alone tonight

Oh we were strangers in the smoke

But pain became the words we spoke

Through shattered glass and burning skies

We found the truth behind the lies

I didn’t come here lookin’ for a fight

But pain got loud in the dead of night

We built a bond from a world torn down

No crowns, no glory — just battlegrounds

I ain’t a hero, never tried to be

But love showed up in the war with me

Not for fame, not for some grand parade

Just wanted to feel... that we weren’t afraid

Maybe it was chaos that made us whole

Every scar just tracing out our soul

If something tender bloomed in the fire's breath

Then maybe healing walks beside the wreck

Love was born in the firelight

You and I, we came alive

We didn’t ask for war

But it showed us something more

From the storm, we chose to rise

And in the threat, we realized…
