[Verse 1]
There's a tide beneath the stillness that nobody seems to find,
A heart that holds the ocean while a horizon fills the mind,
You serve before you're asked to, you notice every crack,
You carry what the room needs and you never ask it back,
The calm they see is real, but it's the half of what you hold,
There's a fire in the quiet and a story still untold

[PreChorus]
You've built your worth in silence, in the work that doesn't show,
But the depth of what you carry is the truest thing you know

[Chorus]
Bernhard, you were written in a language old and wide,
A soul that moves like water, with the whole cosmos inside,
You don't need to keep proving what was always meant to be,
Bernhard, you are enough — you were born already free

[Verse 2]
You think in colors, feel in waves, you speak from somewhere deep,
The words you hold the longest are the ones worth most to keep,
You've weighed every action twice, you've swallowed fire for peace,
But that careful, searching heart of yours is not a fault — it's grace,
You've wrestled with your calling when the path felt hard to read,
Every question was a compass, every wound became a seed

[PreChorus]
The inner voice that doubts you is the same voice that refines,
And the pressure made a diamond out of everything it finds

[Chorus]
Bernhard, you were written in a language old and wide,
A soul that moves like water, with the whole cosmos inside,
You don't need to keep proving what was always meant to be,
Bernhard, you are enough — you were born already free

[Verse 3]
You love in acts of service, in the details no one catches,
In the steady, loyal presence when the world around you shatters,
You've longed for something true and deep, not ornament or show,
A love that holds its ground through everything the seasons throw,
And you are that — you always were — the anchor and the flame,
A rare and restless spirit that no blueprint ever named

[PreChorus]
The universe wrote you carefully with ink that doesn't fade,
And everything you've carried was the map for which you're made

[Chorus]
Bernhard, you were written in a language old and wide,
A soul that moves like water, with the whole cosmos inside,
You don't need to keep proving what was always meant to be,
Bernhard, you are enough — you were born already free

[Bridge]
Let the searching be a gift, not something you must cure,
Let the depth that lives inside you be the thing you're anchored to,
You were never meant to fit the mold — you were meant to break it clean,
You are the rarest kind of whole — felt, known, and fully seen

[Outro]
The stars aligned to carry you, not push you to the edge,
You are held in something ancient, every question, every ledge,
Rest now in the knowing — you were always, always enough
