[Verse 1]
You walk into rooms like you own the horizon
Fire in your chest but your heart's on a mission
They see the bold moves, they don't see the quiet
The way you retreat when the noise gets too violent
You love like a conversation that never gets old
Curious and bright, letting stories unfold
But sometimes you wonder if anyone sees
The depth that you carry beneath all the ease

[PreChorus]
You're more than the rush, more than the flame
More than the questions that drive you insane

[Chorus]
Ellen, you're lightning wrapped up in a prayer
Moving too fast for the world to compare
You fight for tomorrow while healing the past
Ellen, your heart was built to last
Built to last

[Verse]
You think with your hands and you feel with your mind
Leave pieces of magic for others to find
The weight of the world sits soft on your shoulders
You carry it all like the wisest of soldiers
Your dreams live in circles, in causes, in friends
You give till you're empty then give once again
But the girl in the mirror needs someone to say
You don't have to earn love by giving away

[PreChorus]
You're more than your service, more than your care
More than the burdens you're willing to bear

[Chorus]
Ellen, you're lightning wrapped up in a prayer
Moving too fast for the world to compare
You fight for tomorrow while healing the past
Ellen, your heart was built to last
Built to last

[Bridge]
The cosmos conspired to make you this way
Innovation and wisdom in perfect ballet
Your restless mind holds the future inside
While your ancient soul knows the secrets you hide
You don't need permission to take up your space
You don't need perfection to show your true face

[Outro]
Ellen, the universe mapped out your name
In stardust and fire, in freedom and flame
You're exactly enough, you're exactly right here
Ellen, let the whole world disappear
