[Verse 1]
There's an ocean underneath the calm you show the world,
A tide that pulls and carries more than words can hold,
You read the room before you cross the threshold of the door,
You feel what no one says, you carry what they can't restore,
The life you built for others cost a quiet kind of price,
But every hand you warmed at night became your sacrifice and vice.

[PreChorus]
They see the steady shore, they don't see the undertow,
The depth of you is something very few will ever know.

[Chorus]
Susan, you were written in the language of the deep,
Every wound became a wellspring, every scar became a keep,
You are the moon on still water, you are the tide and the shore,
Susan, you were always worth the love you gave and more.

[Verse 2]
You speak with warmth like sunlight finding cracks in stone,
A story always forming in the quiet on your own,
You've carried doubt like luggage that was never really yours,
Proved yourself to rooms that couldn't see what you were for,
The world called it ambition, but you called it needing proof,
That everything you gave so freely had a solid roof.

[PreChorus]
And still you kept on building something steady, something true,
Laying down foundations no one noticed but you knew.

[Chorus]
Susan, you were written in the language of the deep,
Every wound became a wellspring, every scar became a keep,
You are the moon on still water, you are the tide and the shore,
Susan, you were always worth the love you gave and more.

[Verse 3]
You love the way a conversation lights a darkened room,
A question asked with kindness, understanding coming soon,
There's fire underneath the grace you wear like second skin,
A fierceness for the ones you love that very few have seen,
You've dreamed of something larger than the life you settled near,
Those dreams were never reckless — they were how you found your here.

[PreChorus]
The stars arranged themselves the night you came into this place,
And everything you carry now was never yours to erase.

[Chorus]
Susan, you were written in the language of the deep,
Every wound became a wellspring, every scar became a keep,
You are the moon on still water, you are the tide and the shore,
Susan, you were always worth the love you gave and more.

[Bridge]
You don't have to earn your place inside this life again,
The new moon rises just for you, let something now begin,
Come home to what you've always been beneath the weight you bear,
The sky that shaped you holds you still — you are already there.

[Outro]
You are the tide that shapes the stone, the light that finds the deep,
Susan, rest now — everything you love is yours to keep.
