[Verse 1]
You wear the diplomat's smile so well
But behind it lives a deeper truth to tell
You feel the world's imbalance like a weight
Every injustice cuts you straight
Your heart's too big for simple, surface ways
You crave the love that burns through shallow days
They see your grace, they miss the fire within
The way you hold both shadow and the light therein

[Chorus]
Shannon, you're the bridge between the worlds
Shannon, truth and beauty unfurled
You don't need to choose between the dark and bright
You're perfect in your contradictory light
Shannon, every piece of you belongs
Shannon, this is where your power's strong

[Verse 2]
You love like oceans meeting burning shore
Intensity they've never felt before
Your words cut deep when finally you speak
You see the secrets that most others seek
You've built your worth on what you give away
But forgot to save some love to light your way
That mountain climbing heart knows how to last
Even when the world moves way too fast

[PreChorus]
The universe has written you in gold
A story that deserves to be told

[Chorus]
Shannon, you're the bridge between the worlds
Shannon, truth and beauty unfurled
You don't need to choose between the dark and bright
You're perfect in your contradictory light
Shannon, every piece of you belongs
Shannon, this is where your power's strong

[Verse 3]
Your creativity burns like a stage
Where passion meets the wisdom of your age
You feel too much, they say it like it's wrong
But that's exactly where you belong
The spaces in between what others see
That's where you plant your deepest poetry
Your roots run toward the home you're building now
Not the recognition, but the sacred vow

[Bridge]
You don't have to prove your worth again
You don't have to carry everyone's pain
The cosmos made you complex by design
Every contradiction yours by right divine

[Outro]
Let the fire and water both run free
You're exactly who you're meant to be
The world needs your particular kind of care
The love you give when you're completely there
