The “Something in the Orange” singer didn’t give fans much of a heads-up, hopping on Instagram Wednesday to share his release plan.
“Worlds been a bit heavy lately, new music tonight,” he wrote in an Instagram Story, which featured a live studio snippet of “The World’s a Giant.”
On the personal front, Zach and his yearlong girlfriend, Brianna Chickenfry, broke up in October.
“I’ve had an incredibly hard year personally and struggled through some pretty severe things,” Zach told fans in an Instagram Story shared after the breakup. “I thought it would be beneficial for both of us to go our different ways. I am not perfect and never will be.”

Like many of his songs, “The World’s a Guitar,” which Zach wrote alone, fleshes out his heart and offers a personal reflection on life, romance and everything in between.

This World’s A Giant Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's guitars ringin' now from the top floor of this house
That I've learned to rest my soul inside
Be still, be quiet, this world's a giant
That I don't feel like facing tonight
I don't have the words yet, I'll smoke a cigarette
Even though she'll smell it on my breath
I say I want kids even though I can't quit
The things that make me childish
[Verse 2]
But it ain't all bad, the windows are cracked
I came down to hear you laughin' in the kitchen, babe
Let's pour some wine, there's still a little time
And maybe a little bit left in me to save
Be still, be quiet, this world's a giant
I ain't ever had myself a David's heart
I'll say sorry to God for all the trouble I caused
Maybe that's a good place for me to start
[Chorus]
You're beholden to no holders, boy
I heard breathin' in this world is the thief of joy
You're better off fightin' than you are dead
The time for rest ain't now 'cause the kids need fed
The time for rest ain't now 'cause the kids need fed
[Verse 3]
Guitars ringin' now from the top of that house
We used to rest our souls inside
Nothing lasts, memories pass
Think of home on an August night
There's reasons to go, reasons to stay
Just know you'll fear it all anyway
Be still, be quiet, this world's a giant
Maybe there's a little bit left to save
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Outro]
You're beholden to no holders, boy
I heard breathin' in this world is the thief of joy
You're better off fightin' than you are dead
The time for rest ain't now 'cause the kids need fed
The time for rest ain't now, the kids need fed
