[Verse 1]
He reads the room before he reads the words on the page,
A mind that moves like lightning, quiet fire in a cage,
He'll tell you what is true before you finish the lie,
An arrow aimed at something most won't bother to find,
He laughs a little louder when the ache runs deep,
And builds his walls from everything he swore he'd keep,

[PreChorus]
They see the open road, they don't see the weight he's carried,
The places inside him that he hasn't dared to marry,

[Chorus]
But Zane, you are the horizon and the ground,
The kind of soul the quiet universe has found,
Every contradiction is a country of its own,
You were written by the stars and never meant to be alone,

[Verse 2]
He loves like something ancient at the bottom of the sea,
Where it's dark enough to matter, where it's deep enough to breathe,
He won't hand his heart to anyone who's passing through,
But once he gives it over, there is nothing he won't do,
He shows his care in details, in the things you didn't ask,
A tenderness he hides behind his capable and calm,

[PreChorus]
He craves the kind of bond that holds when everything is breaking,
The kind that doesn't flinch at all the noise that he is making,

[Chorus]
Because Zane, you are the horizon and the ground,
The kind of soul the quiet universe has found,
Every contradiction is a country of its own,
You were written by the stars and never meant to be alone,

[Verse 3]
There's a wound he keeps returning to like pressing on a bruise,
A feeling that he's somehow got too much or too little to lose,
He wrestles with the gap between the man he plans to be,
And the boy who still is standing at the edge of the sea,
But every storm he's weathered left a knowing in his bones,
The kind of earned intelligence that no one ever owns,

[PreChorus]
He came here with a purpose even when it wears disguise,
There's a compass running through him pointing somewhere past the sky,

[Chorus]
And Zane, you are the horizon and the ground,
The kind of soul the quiet universe has found,
Every contradiction is a country of its own,
You were written by the stars and never meant to be alone,

[Verse 4]
He carries more than people know, he offers more than he receives,
He'll hold the room together while he's falling at the seams,
But the strength it takes to go that deep is not a burden, it's a gift,
Every question that he's carried has the power to uplift,
The world is richer for the way his mind refuses to sit still,
And the truth he speaks with honesty is courage, not a flaw of will,

[PreChorus]
He doesn't need to be the loudest voice to change the frequency,
The light he holds is ancient and it's exactly what we need,

[Chorus]
Oh Zane, you are the horizon and the ground,
The kind of soul the quiet universe has found,
Every contradiction is a country of its own,
You were written by the stars and never meant to be alone,

[Bridge]
Let the fire and the water find their peace inside your chest,
You have always been enough, you never had to prove the rest,
Every step has been a thread in something carefully designed,
You are held by something older and it knew you all this time,

[Outro]
The cosmos wrote you carefully with ink that never fades,
You are not lost, you are becoming, and you're not afraid,
Zane, the stars have always known the name they gave to you,
And everything you are becoming is already true,
