[Verse 1]
She carries two conversations at once inside her chest,
A mind that maps the exits while her heart stays as the guest,
At the top of every room, her voice was built to lead,
But the words she chose most carefully were the ones nobody freed,
She grew up in a house where the floorboards held their breath,
Learning early how to read the rooms between the life and death,

[PreChorus]
She filed every feeling in a drawer she kept locked tight,
But her hands were always reaching toward the unfinished light,

[Chorus]
Erin, you were made for more than managing the storm,
The double-edged gift of brilliance is a hard thing to be born,
Erin, every word you ever swallowed, every draft you left undone—
They were never wasted pages, they were kindling for the sun,

[Verse 2]
She reads the underneath of things before the surface speaks,
Can feel a shift in someone's breathing when the silence peaks,
She guards the ones she loves like a door with a second lock,
Sets the table, checks the windows, keeps the hands on the clock,
But she's poured herself in vessels she could never quite refill,
Given warmth to every corner while she learned to fight the chill,

[PreChorus]
The pulling between duty and the dream she can't disown,
Has been the longest argument she's ever fought alone,

[Chorus]
Erin, you were built to gather what the broken leave behind,
To translate grief to language, to make meaning out of mind,
Erin, all the love you've pressed between the margins of each year—
It left a record only someone whole enough could hear,

[Verse 3]
Now the season that is coming carries something like a key,
The kind that doesn't fit the old locks—fits the one marked free,
She's questioned every map she had, torn the footnotes out,
But truth she forged in her own furnace burns without a doubt,
The depth was always with her, simmered patient, never gone—
A woman who outlasted every myth she was placed upon,

[PreChorus]
She doesn't need permission from the verdict or the crowd,
The voice that learned in silence has already earned its loud,

[Chorus]
Erin, you're the bridge between the vision and the real,
The one who turns the abstract into something you can feel,
Erin, every question that you carried like a stone—
Was already the answer, and it's always been your own,

[Bridge]
She'll stop translating herself for rooms that never listened close,
She'll keep the draft she loves the most, not the one that pleases most,
The work is hers, the table hers, the threshold fully crossed—
She's counted every cost and knows exactly what she's not,

[Outro]
Erin, the stars were never telling you to wait,
They built a door inside your bones and you already hold the gate,
