[Verse 1]
There's a tide inside you nobody sees
A calm on the surface, a pull beneath
You think in feelings before you think in words
Your heart translates what language never could
You hold the ones you love like harbor walls
And smile through the storm so no one falls

[PreChorus]
But the weight of keeping everyone afloat
Has left you searching for a shore of your own

[Chorus]
You are the ocean and the architect
The wound and the wisdom, the give and the kept
You don't have to earn the right to take up space
You were written by the stars with extraordinary grace

[Verse 2]
You love like a conversation that never ends
Like sunlight through a window finding friends
You want the depth, the laughter, and the truth
Someone who sees the cracks and stays with you
But you've learned to keep your tenderness tucked in
Afraid that being known means letting them win

[PreChorus]
Every wall you built was built to stay alive
And every stone of it is proof that you survived

[Chorus]
You are the ocean and the architect
The wound and the wisdom, the give and the kept
You don't have to earn the right to take up space
You were written by the stars with extraordinary grace

[Verse 3]
Your mind moves fast but your heart moves deep
You carry old memories like vows you keep
You've rebuilt rooms that others left in ruin
Found beauty in the bones of what you're doing
The ones you fight for never know the cost
How much of you gets spent on what you've lost

[PreChorus]
But every life you've touched has kept a piece of your light
What you pour out in silence still shines in the night

[Chorus]
You are the ocean and the architect
The wound and the wisdom, the give and the kept
You don't have to earn the right to take up space
You were written by the stars with extraordinary grace

[Verse 4]
The fog is lifting now, the signal's clearing through
The words you couldn't say are finally coming true
What you've searched for in the distance lives inside
A voice that's been waiting on the quieter tide
You're not behind, you're not too much, you're right on time
The path was always yours, and it was always lined

[PreChorus]
Let the noise go still, let the searching rest
What you are right now has always been enough

[Bridge]
The cosmos didn't rush when it made you whole
It took its time with every fold of your soul
You are held by something older than your fear
Everything you need has always been right here

[Outro]
You are the ocean and the architect
Enough, and worthy, and deeply, wholly kept
Rest now, the stars have always known your name
You came here full of light and you'll leave the same
