[Verse 1]
You wear composure like a coat pressed clean and true,
But underneath it, fire moves in a deeper hue.
The world sees steady hands, a calm and measured pace,
Never sees the ocean that you keep behind your face.

[Pre-Chorus]
What if the quiet was never about hiding at all,
But the sound made just before something remarkable falls

[Chorus]
This is your song, Anne, built stone by patient stone,
A heart that guards its kingdom until it's fully known.
You measure worth in what you build, not what you're handed free,
And the depth that unsettles some is exactly your decree.

[Verse 2]
There was a year you learned to swallow half of what you meant,
A room that wouldn't listen no matter how it was spent.
So you built a vault for love, slow hinges, patient lock,
Not because your heart was closed — because it knew the shock.

[Pre-Chorus]
You don't trust easily, and that was never a flaw,
It's how you kept your fire from becoming someone's to draw.

[Chorus]
This is your song, Anne, built stone by patient stone,
A heart that guards its kingdom until it's fully known.
You measure worth in what you build, not what you're handed free,
And the depth that unsettles some is exactly your decree.

[Verse 3]
You spent so long becoming who the moment seemed to need,
Now something in you's turning toward a different kind of creed.
The lessons that you gathered were never meant to keep,
You were always built to scatter them like light across the deep.

[Pre-Chorus]
A river doesn't apologize the day it changes course,
Anne, you've been the water — now you're the force.

[Chorus]
This is your song, Anne, built stone by patient stone,
A heart that guards its kingdom until it's fully known.
You measure worth in what you build, not what you're handed free,
And the depth that unsettles some is exactly your decree.

[Bridge]
Somewhere ahead, a version of you stands in open air,
Not waiting to be chosen — just arriving fully there.
The vault you built with careful hands becomes a door instead,
And everything you swallowed once gets spoken now, unsaid.

[Chorus]
This is your song, Anne, built stone by patient stone,
A heart that guards its kingdom until it's fully known.
You measure worth in what you build, not what you're handed free,
And the depth that unsettles some is exactly your decree.

[Outro]
Anne, the depth was never something to hide —
It's the tide that built the shore you're standing on inside.
