[Verse 1]
There's a stillness on the surface of the water you show,
But underneath the current pulls where no one else can go,
You read a room before you've crossed the threshold of the door,
You carry what you've witnessed like sediment on the floor,
They see composure, clean lines, a mind that holds its place,
But few have ever glimpsed the ocean underneath your face,

[PreChorus]
You've always felt the weight of worlds that weren't yours to bear,
And learned to fold yourself in half just to fit somewhere,

[Chorus]
You are the depth that doesn't need to drown to be known,
The kind of light that finds its way through the crack in the stone,
What lives in you is ancient, it was written before your name,
And nothing that you've carried has diminished your flame,

[Verse 2]
You love like something sworn, like a covenant made at night,
Not easily, not carelessly — you wait until it's right,
And when you give yourself, you give the marrow and the core,
The kind of love that doesn't know how to be something more,
You've felt the sting of merging when the other pulled away,
That wound became your compass, pointing toward a truer day,

[PreChorus]
You've learned to build your safety from the inside of your bones,
To trust the quiet knowing when it whispers you are home,

[Chorus]
You are the depth that doesn't need to drown to be known,
The kind of light that finds its way through the crack in the stone,
What lives in you is ancient, it was written before your name,
And nothing that you've carried has diminished your flame,

[Verse 3]
The part of you that scrutinizes every crooked seam,
That holds the thread of order like a life raft on a stream,
That's not a flaw — that's the precision of a mind that cares,
A devotion dressed as detail, a love that always dares,
You've poured yourself in service and in work and in repair,
And sometimes forgot the one who needed tending standing there,

[PreChorus]
You deserve the softness that you offer to the world each day,
Your worth was never something you were meant to have to prove away,

[Chorus]
You are the depth that doesn't need to drown to be known,
The kind of light that finds its way through the crack in the stone,
What lives in you is ancient, it was written before your name,
And nothing that you've carried has diminished your flame,

[Verse 4]
There's a part of you that stood between the old world and the new,
Between the freedom that you craved and the duty pulling through,
You've wrestled with the hunger to be fully, wildly seen,
And the pull toward something quieter, rooted and serene,
The answer lives between those two — not either, not the same,
But a life that finally carries both the wildness and the flame,

[PreChorus]
The universe etched your becoming long before the first turn,
And everything you've lived through was a truth you were meant to earn,

[Bridge]
You don't have to be unbroken to be whole and true,
The roots go deeper, not despite the storms, but through,
There is a gravity to you that the stars themselves could feel,
Everything you are right now is everything that's real,

[Outro]
Let the tide come in, let the walls come down,
You were always meant to be found,
You are enough — not someday, not when — now,
The cosmos bowed the day it made you, and it still knows how.
