[Verse 1]
She maps the world before she takes a step,
A mind that catches every detail others forget,
She holds the weight of what could go wrong or right,
Rearranging all the pieces deep into the night,
They see the steady hands, the calm, the careful plan,
They don't see the fire burning where the searching began

[PreChorus]
But underneath the order lives a sky without a ceiling,
A hunger for the horizon that no system stops from reeling

[Chorus]
Melissa, you were written in a language all your own,
A wandering soul who builds cathedrals out of stone,
You carry more than anyone has ever asked you to,
And every road you've walked has always been leading home to you

[Verse 2]
She loves like something ancient and wide and true,
Grand with every gesture, loyal through and through,
She wants to be adored the way she gives her heart,
Seen and celebrated right down to every part,
But she's learned to dim the brightness, learned to make it small,
Afraid the full flame might be just too much for all

[PreChorus]
Still the depth in her is not a flaw to be corrected,
It's the reason every room she walks in feels connected

[Chorus]
Melissa, you were written in a language all your own,
A wandering soul who builds cathedrals out of stone,
You carry more than anyone has ever asked you to,
And every road you've walked has always been leading home to you

[Verse 3]
She's walked through rooms where trust felt like a risk,
Where she held herself together with a quiet clenched fist,
Swinging between closeness and pulling back the door,
Giving everything she has and wondering what she's for,
But every scar she's carried turned to something she could name,
A kind of grounded wisdom only earned inside the flame

[PreChorus]
She's been through enough dark water to know how to stay afloat,
And what she calls her damage is the lining of her coat

[Chorus]
Melissa, you were written in a language all your own,
A wandering soul who builds cathedrals out of stone,
You carry more than anyone has ever asked you to,
And every road you've walked has always been leading home to you

[Verse 4]
She was made to leave a mark, not just a trace,
To step into her purpose and not just hold her place,
There's a voice inside her chest that knows exactly where to go,
Not because the path is clear but because the roots run low,
She doesn't have to earn the right to take up space and breathe,
The cosmos wrote her carefully in ink that cannot leave

[PreChorus]
She doesn't need to be complete to finally start believing,
That who she is right now is more than worth receiving

[Chorus]
Melissa, you were written in a language all your own,
A wandering soul who builds cathedrals out of stone,
You carry more than anyone has ever asked you to,
And every road you've walked has always been leading home to you

[Bridge]
The sky that made her didn't make mistakes,
Every contradiction in her is what the light creates,
She is the question and the answer, both the wound and cure,
Guided, held, and whole — and she always has been sure

[Outro]
The stars don't shine for those without a story worth the telling,
And hers has only just begun its swelling,
She is enough — she has always been enough,
The universe built her careful, and it built her strong
