[Verse 1]
There's a tide inside that nobody gets to see,
A depth that runs like rivers underneath the ordinary
You feel the room before you walk inside the door,
You carry what the world has lost and quietly ask for more
They see the surface, still and composed and clear,
But there's a whole ocean living in you, one they'll never hear
You've always known too much, and felt it twice as deep,
The kind of knowing that you guard because it costs too much to keep

[PreChorus 1]
But that's not weakness, that's a different kind of strong,
You've been building something sacred all along

[Chorus]
Susanne, you are written in the water and the flame,
Every scar you thought was ruin is the reason that you came
You've been reading skies that others couldn't name,
Susanne, you are not too much — you are exactly what you came to claim

[Verse 2]
You love like someone who has studied loss and stayed,
You give the warmth you needed most and pray it isn't repaid
You light up when the conversation goes somewhere real,
When words become the bridge between what's said and what you feel
You've kept a fire burning underneath the careful calm,
And offered it to everyone while hiding your own balm
You've dressed your hunger up in questions, chased the wide and far,
Because home never quite felt safe enough to hold all that you are

[PreChorus 2]
But every road you've wandered brought you back to this,
There's a truth inside you nothing can dismiss

[Chorus]
Susanne, you are written in the water and the flame,
Every scar you thought was ruin is the reason that you came
You've been reading skies that others couldn't name,
Susanne, you are not too much — you are exactly what you came to claim

[Verse 3]
You've had to build your safety with your own two hands,
Rebuild the meaning after storms that left no solid land
The roots you longed for, you grew quietly inside,
You became the shelter you were always being denied
You speak with heart and fire when you finally let it out,
And every word you carefully chose was chasing out the doubt
There's ancient knowing in the way your instincts move,
A compass pointing toward the truth no one could take from you

[PreChorus 3]
You've earned the ground beneath your feet the hardest way,
And everything you built was meant to stay

[Chorus]
Susanne, you are written in the water and the flame,
Every scar you thought was ruin is the reason that you came
You've been reading skies that others couldn't name,
Susanne, you are not too much — you are exactly what you came to claim

[Verse 4]
You don't have to prove the depth of what you hold inside,
You don't have to make yourself smaller just to make the world feel wide
The ones who truly see you know the magnitude you carry,
The ones who stay beside you know your love is extraordinary
You've touched the dark and dragged up light with quiet, steady grace,
And left a trail of healing in every ordinary place
You've wrestled with the mystery of who you're meant to be,
And the answer was already whole — it just needed you to see

[PreChorus 4]
You don't need to earn the right to rest and be,
The universe already holds your name in everything

[Chorus]
Susanne, you are written in the water and the flame,
Every scar you thought was ruin is the reason that you came
You've been reading skies that others couldn't name,
Susanne, you are not too much — you are exactly what you came to claim

[Bridge]
You are the question and the answer in the same breath,
The one who walked through every kind of loss and chose depth
You are the tide returning, you are the lantern in the deep,
The truest things about you are the ones you dare to keep
Stop apologizing for the way you feel too wide,
The world was waiting for someone with that much life inside

[Outro]
So rest now in the knowing you were carefully made,
Every piece of you was placed with purpose, nothing lost or mislaid
The stars wrote you with intention, and the moon kept watch all night,
Susanne, you are enough — you have always been the light
