[Verse 1]
She's up before the dawn, sorting through the drawer,
Every label straight, every edge aligned to the core,
A mind like a filing cabinet, cross-referenced and clear,
But the deepest files are locked — she keeps the good stuff near,
She memorized the blueprint before she learned to speak,
And built her whole foundation on the details others miss each week,

[PreChorus]
But something underneath the order knows there's more,
A depth she's barely opened, knocking at the floor,

[Chorus]
Annie, you're the one who reads between the lines,
Who writes the notes in margins just to keep the whole thing fine,
Your thoroughness is tenderness — it's always been your art,
Annie, the most precise thing in the room is also your whole heart,

[Verse 2]
She carries home like a lantern, room by room, door to door,
Pressed flowers in the threshold, warmth along the floor,
Three planets nested where the family stories live,
An overflow of feeling that she's always first to give,
She idealizes those she loves — sees the gold inside the clay,
And sets the table beautifully for people who just walk away,

[PreChorus]
But she's not broken by the ones who couldn't stay —
She's the slow accumulation of what finally holds its weight,

[Chorus]
Annie, you are home to everyone who knocks,
The one who rearranges grief into something that unlocks,
Your depth runs past the diagram, past every reasoned part,
Annie, the most enduring thing you've built is in your heart,

[Verse 3]
Her words have always carried more than words were meant to hold,
A sentence with a trapdoor, a question edged in gold,
She second-guesses what she said on Tuesday after noon,
Runs the conversation back and edits every tune,
But when she finally speaks the thing she's turned a hundred ways,
The whole room leans in closer — that's how long her echo stays,

[PreChorus]
The full eclipse arrives and pulls the ledger loose,
What she's held in perfect order now has nothing left to prove,

[Chorus]
Annie, let the tallied list dissolve tonight,
The thing you called unfinished was already burning bright,
You've been the trust, the reckoning, the hand that held the door,
Annie, what your life has always meant — it's worth so much more,

[Bridge]
She's walked the line between the counted and the vast,
Between the thing she can explain and what she can't forecast,
Let the uncatalogued, the tender, the unnamed come through —
The most alive she's ever felt is when she stopped the review,

[Outro]
Annie, the stars already know your name,
Every careful thing you've made will never look the same,
You were never just the sum of what you could arrange —
You're the whole unfolding,
