Universe
Dancing Lynx Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

My body hasn't gone a rest, in a week, for my mind, for my mind is making me stay awake
We can build our own universe so the sun always shine above our head
I want you to take my hand

And we fly-y-y-y in our love, in our love (until, until)
And we drown in our love, in our love, in our love

I get headaches like razorblades it's a renegade in my head

Cause all the pill can heal me back, I need you
I'll be forty-four miles in a torn of habit, I'll be see the light
Put a it out, I'm gonna get there, I'm gonna get there before it puts me to an end.

If only you take??? advise

You made us fly-y-y-y in our love, in our love, until, until
and we drown in our love, in our love, in our love

Til' the sun sets, til' the sun sets, it's killing me, mmh

Til' the sun sets, til' the sun sets, it's killing me, mmh

Til' the sun sets, til' the sun sets, it's killing me, mmh

Til' the sun sets, til' the sun sets, it's killing me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dancing Lynx's song "Universe" seem to focus on the difficulties of the singer's mental state and the power of love to overcome those struggles. The opening lines describe how the singer's body has been unable to find rest for a week because their mind is keeping them awake. This suggests a mental health struggle such as anxiety or insomnia. The following lines, "We can build our own universe so the sun always shines above our head" and "I want you to take my hand," indicate a desire for a partner with whom to escape the difficulties of reality.

The chorus emphasizes the power of their love and its ability to transport them away from the pain of reality. They fly and drown in their love, indicating a sense of liberation from their mental struggles. However, the repeated line "Til' the sun sets, til' the sun sets, it's killing me, mmh" indicates that these struggles are still very much present and cannot be ignored forever.

Overall, the lyrics suggest a need for escape from the daily struggles of mental health, and the healing power of love in that process.
