[Verse 1]
There's a fire that burns beneath the surface calm
A mind that cuts through shadows like a psalm
You see what others miss, the hidden truth
Behind the smiles and lies of borrowed youth
Your heart beats steady but it beats so deep
The secrets that you carry, that you keep
Are treasures wrapped in mystery and pain
The storms inside you fall like gentle rain

[PreChorus]
You've learned to balance on the edge of night
Between the darkness and the blazing light

[Chorus]
Alan, you're the keeper of the sacred flame
Alan, turning wisdom into something they can't name
Every scar's a story that you've written in the stars
You're exactly who you're meant to be, with all your beautiful scars
Alan, the cosmos knew what it was doing when it made you

[Verse 2]
You love like poetry written in the wind
With adventure calling from around the bend
Your words are bridges built from heart to heart
You speak the language that can heal and start
The conversations that the world needs most
You're simultaneously shadow and the host
Of light that dances in the in-between
The artist and the canvas, felt but never seen

[PreChorus]
You've learned to balance on the edge of night
Between the darkness and the blazing light

[Chorus]
Alan, you're the keeper of the sacred flame
Alan, turning wisdom into something they can't name
Every scar's a story that you've written in the stars
You're exactly who you're meant to be, with all your beautiful scars
Alan, the cosmos knew what it was doing when it made you

[Verse 3]
Your service flows like water finding ground
In quiet acts of grace that make no sound
The precision of your care, the way you mend
The broken things that others just pretend
Don't need attention, don't deserve the time
You see the sacred in the mundane rhyme
Of daily life, and when you choose to stay
You're choosing love in such a gentle way

[PreChorus]
You've learned to balance on the edge of night
Between the darkness and the blazing light

[Chorus]
Alan, you're the keeper of the sacred flame
Alan, turning wisdom into something they can't name
Every scar's a story that you've written in the stars
You're exactly who you're meant to be, with all your beautiful scars
Alan, the cosmos knew what it was doing when it made you

[Bridge]
Don't dim the intensity that makes you whole
The depths you carry feed your very soul
The world needs someone who can feel this much
Who transforms everything they ever touch
Into something deeper than it was before
You don't need to be less, you can be more

[Outro]
The universe has held you from the start
Every contradiction, every part
Of who you are was written in the stars
You're perfect with your beautiful scars
The cosmos knew exactly what it was doing
When it made you
