My Universe
Anne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Need someone there to say
"I will hold you through this life"
I'll be there
You've been doing great
But you carried too much weight
Now, just lie here
Let me be near
Just be who you are
While I keep you
Company
Let go the world you've made
Just let yourself be safed
When is enough enough?
Let go, love
Your eyes are lid with stardust now
And the shades of heavens blue
As I gaze within them I have found
My universe in you
On an epic scale
We're carrying all our tragic tales
Pull this broken veil
Nail by nail
Let's escape this pain
Move beyond our brains
Feel this mighty flame
Clearing all our shame
Your eyes are lid with stardust now
And the shades of heavens blue
As I gaze within them I have found
My universe in you
Your eyes are lid with stardust now
And the shades of heavens blue
As I gaze within them I have found
My universe in you
In "My Universe," Anne offers a supportive message to someone who has been carrying too much weight and feels lost. She reassures them that she will hold them through this life and be there for them. Anne acknowledges and respects the scars that this person may carry, urging them to just be themselves. She encourages them to let go of the world they've made and let themselves be saved. Anne also finds comfort in this person's eyes, seeing stardust and the shades of the heavens. She has found her universe in this individual, and together they can move beyond their pain and clear their shame.
The song was written and produced by Anne-Marie and Nathan Dawe. It was released on September 9, 2021, as the second single from Anne's second studio album, "Therapy." "My Universe" was inspired by Anne's close relationship with her best friend, who was going through a tough time.
