[Verse 1]
There's a fire beneath the surface that burns so bright
Hidden depths that hold the secrets of wrong and right
You see through the masks that others choose to wear
With a mind that cuts through shadows, truth laid bare
Safety lives in what you build with your own hands
While your heart craves something more than shifting sands

[PreChorus]
They don't know the storms you weather in silence
All the strength it takes to love through the violence
Of a world that asks for pieces of your soul
When you're learning how to keep yourself whole

[Chorus]
Shannon, you're the ocean and the shore
All the mystery they've been searching for
Every wall you've built became a bridge
Every wound became your privilege
Shannon, you're magnetic in your truth
All the beauty in your restless youth
Still burning bright, still burning true
The universe conspired to make you

[Verse 2]
You love like something ancient, fierce and deep
All or nothing, no promises you can't keep
Independence runs electric through your veins
While you're building something solid that remains
Transform the pain to wisdom, lead to gold
Your compassion holds the stories left untold

[PreChorus]
They don't see the weight of caring you carry
How your gentleness makes even angels weary
But your strength was born from every tear you've cried
Now you know there's nothing left you need to hide

[Chorus]
Shannon, you're the ocean and the shore
All the mystery they've been searching for
Every wall you've built became a bridge
Every wound became your privilege
Shannon, you're magnetic in your truth
All the beauty in your restless youth
Still burning bright, still burning true
The universe conspired to make you

[Verse 3]
Innovation flows through everything you touch
Your originality means twice as much
To a world that needs the vision that you hold
All your restless dreams are waiting to unfold
You don't need to prove your worth another day
You're already perfect in your own way

[PreChorus]
All the battles that you've fought in the darkness
Led you to this light, this beautiful starkness
Of a soul that knows its power and its grace
Finally seeing love reflected in your face

[Chorus]
Shannon, you're the ocean and the shore
All the mystery they've been searching for
Every wall you've built became a bridge
Every wound became your privilege
Shannon, you're magnetic in your truth
All the beauty in your restless youth
Still burning bright, still burning true
The universe conspired to make you

[Bridge]
There's a compass pointing home inside your heart
You were guided from the very, very start
Every step was leading to this moment here
Where you see yourself completely, crystal clear

[Outro]
You are guided, you are held, you are enough
Made of stardust and the most resilient stuff
All the cosmos wrote you carefully with love
Shannon, you are everything you're dreaming of
