[Verse 1]
There's a tide beneath the stillness that nobody sees,
A depth of feeling running quiet, like a current through the trees,
You carry what others drop, you hold what others spill,
You've built a home inside your heart and guard it with your will,
The calm they see is real, but so is everything below,
A ocean full of everything you never let them know

[PreChorus]
But the weight you carry tenderly was never meant for one,
You were written by the water and the light beyond the sun

[Chorus]
Every scar became a shelter, every wound became a room,
You are ancient and you're tender, you're the tide that moves the moon,
You don't have to earn the safety that your own heart longs to keep,
You were made for this, all of this, the beauty and the deep

[Verse 2]
You speak with warmth and fire when you finally let it free,
Your mind moves like a conversation crossing land and sea,
You long for harmony the way the morning longs for light,
You'll rearrange your whole interior to keep the peace in sight,
But darling, your own balance matters just as much as theirs,
The one who holds the world together still deserves someone who cares

[PreChorus]
The love you give so carefully, so quietly, so true,
Was always meant to find its way, eventually, back to you

[Chorus]
Every scar became a shelter, every wound became a room,
You are ancient and you're tender, you're the tide that moves the moon,
You don't have to earn the safety that your own heart longs to keep,
You were made for this, all of this, the beauty and the deep

[Verse 3]
There's something in the roots of you that time cannot erode,
A steady, patient, burning kind of strength below the road,
You've sat with complicated things and didn't look away,
You've turned the darkest family soil into somewhere you could stay,
The world may not have named your work or handed you its crown,
But what you've healed inside yourself is turning something around

[PreChorus]
A new moon rises over everything you thought you'd lost,
And what awakens now in you was always worth the cost

[Chorus]
Every scar became a shelter, every wound became a room,
You are ancient and you're tender, you're the tide that moves the moon,
You don't have to earn the safety that your own heart longs to keep,
You were made for this, all of this, the beauty and the deep

[Bridge]
The stars did not forget you when they mapped this life of yours,
They gave you tides and tenderness and quietly unlocked the doors,
What you carry is a lantern, not a burden, not a chain,
You were never just surviving, you were learning your terrain

[Outro]
So let the new moon find you where you've always truly been,
Whole and held and luminous, awake and seen
