[Verse 1]
You carry whole oceans beneath a still face,
A current so deep it leaves no trace,
You read every room before you walk in,
You know what they're hiding beneath their skin,
The world sees composure, a steady shore,
They'll never guess what you're keeping the tides for

[PreChorus]
Your mind moves like water through solid stone,
Turning every secret into something known

[Chorus]
Despina, you burn like an October flame,
Ancient and electric, no two nights the same,
You love with the force of a changing tide,
You are the mystery, you are the light inside

[Verse 2]
You've felt like a stranger to rooms full of faces,
Left pieces of yourself in the wrong places,
That hunger for something that goes all the way down,
For love that won't surface then quietly drown,
You gave without asking, you held without rest,
And called it your duty to empty your chest

[PreChorus]
But every wall you built was also proof,
That something worth protecting lived the truth

[Chorus]
Despina, you burn like an October flame,
Ancient and electric, no two nights the same,
You love with the force of a changing tide,
You are the mystery, you are the light inside

[Verse 3]
The roots of your home hold more than old pain,
They hold who you'll be when you come back again,
You're learning that worth isn't earned in the giving,
That rest is as sacred as the act of living,
Your healing's not hidden in some distant star,
It lives in the ground of exactly who you are

[PreChorus]
The cosmos wrote your name in careful ink,
You are not what falls — you're what refuses to sink

[Chorus]
Despina, you burn like an October flame,
Ancient and electric, no two nights the same,
You love with the force of a changing tide,
You are the mystery, you are the light inside

[Bridge]
You were never too much, you were always enough,
The depth that felt heavy was never a flaw,
What they couldn't hold was never your fault,
You are the current, the key, and the door

[Outro]
The night you were born, the sky held its breath,
And wrote something true that outlives every test,
You don't need to prove what the universe knows,
You are already whole — and you already glow
