[Verse 1]
She holds the tide inside her chest where no one sees it rise,
A softness built like shelter, reading storms behind your eyes,
She'll carry what you're dropping without asking to be paid,
But every wall she's built around her heart was self-made,
There's an ocean underneath the calm she shows the room,
A whole world running fathoms deep beneath the afternoon

[PreChorus]
She's been pouring light for others while her own lamp ran low,
Working in the quiet, building things they'll never know

[Chorus]
The moon made you from water and the tide made you from stone,
Carrie, you were written in a language all your own,
You don't have to prove the depth to those who'll never dive,
Every part of you that aches is proof you're fully alive

[Verse 2]
She speaks with fire underneath the words she chooses slow,
A mind that runs like thunder but the heart that needs to know,
She loves the way the old songs do — with loyalty and weight,
She waits until she's certain, then she loves without restraint,
The restless thing inside her isn't broken, it's a gift,
The part that craves the open sky is also what won't drift

[PreChorus]
She's learning that her presence is enough without the proof,
That the home she's been rebuilding has been growing from the root

[Chorus]
The moon made you from water and the tide made you from stone,
Carrie, you were written in a language all your own,
You don't have to prove the depth to those who'll never dive,
Every part of you that aches is proof you're fully alive

[Verse 3]
The wounds she carries quietly became the ground she stands on,
The places where she almost broke are where her strength was handed,
She's served the room before herself and called it just her nature,
But the universe wrote something more into her every feature,
A new moon holds its darkness like a promise, not a lack —
She's not behind, she's gathering before she's coming back

[PreChorus]
The world she's been becoming has been waiting in the wings,
And everything she's tended to is finally taking wings

[Chorus]
The moon made you from water and the tide made you from stone,
Carrie, you were written in a language all your own,
You don't have to prove the depth to those who'll never dive,
Every part of you that aches is proof you're fully alive

[Bridge]
The sky mapped out a soul too wide to fit inside a name,
The same tides pulling at your heart are pulling at the flame,
You were made to hold the contradictions, never just one note,
You are the shore, the undertow, and everything they wrote

[Outro]
Rest now in the knowing you were never incomplete,
The ground beneath your searching was already your heartbeat
