Lyrics

Intro

Verse 1

Blue light on my face at three a.m.

Waiting for a ping to start again

Miles between our feet, but you are near

Your typed-out voice is the only sound I hear

I used to think my room was big and wide

Now my entire universe is locked inside

Verse 2

My coffee gets cold while we talk and laugh

You know my soul and my broken past

My phone is the lifeline to your heart

It hurts so much when we have to part

I check my notifications every second now

You became my whole world, I don't know how

Chorus

You became my everything through a screen

The brightest light that I have ever seen

They say love through a wire always fades away

But I am down on my knees, I beg and pray

I hope we are the one percent that stays

I hope this love outlives the passing days

Verse 3

My friends say I am staring at a ghost

But you are the person that I need the most

They do not see the way you make me smile

They do not know I'd walk every single mile

To stand right where you are and breathe you in

To let our real-world history finally begin

Chorus

You became my everything through a screen

The brightest light that I have ever seen

They say love through a wire always fades away

But I am down on my knees, I beg and pray

I hope we are the one percent that stays

I hope this love outlives the passing days

Bridge

People say it is not real if it is online

But your hand in my mind feels so divine

Are we a magic spark or just a trace?

I need to find out in a physical space

99 percent of people drop and break

But you are a risk I am willing to take

Chorus

You became my everything through a screen

The brightest light that I have ever seen

They say love through a wire always fades away

But I am down on my knees, I beg and pray

I hope we are the one percent that stays

I hope this love outlives the passing days

Outro

Just one percent

That is all we need

Let this love grow

Let this heart bleed

Don't let us fade into the air

Just tell me that you'll still be there

One percent

Stay with me
