Across The Universe
The Beatles/Fiona Apple Lyrics

Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup
My thoughts and emotions are pouring out of me so fast that they are impossible to contain or control.

They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe
My thoughts and emotions are abstract and elusive, slipping away from me like a snake despite my attempts to capture or understand them.

Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind
My mind is wide open to the full range of my emotions - both the sadness and the happiness - and I am experiencing them deeply.

Possessing and caressing me
My emotions are so strong that they are taking over my body and mind, holding me in their grip and almost caressing me in their intensity.

Jai Guru Deva Om
I am acknowledging and connecting with a higher power, possibly seeking guidance or surrendering control.

Nothing's gonna change my world
Despite the chaos and intensity of my emotional experience, I feel a sense of stability and certainty that nothing external can disrupt or alter.

Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes
Even as I try to make sense of my own thoughts and emotions, I am also aware of the world around me, seeing fragments of light and life that seem to be watching me in turn.

They call me on and on across the universe
The outside world is making its presence known to me in a persistent and compelling way, drawing me out of myself and into a wider, more cosmic perspective.

Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box
My thoughts are shifting and changing direction constantly, moving in unpredictable ways like wind blowing through an open mailbox.

They tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe
Despite their aimlessness, my thoughts and emotions are still powerful and impactful, carving a path through the world around me even as I struggle to control or understand them.

Sounds of laughter, shades of earth are ringing
I am attuned to the sensory experience of the world around me, absorbing the laughter and color of life with open ears and eyes.

Through my open ears inciting and inviting me
These sensory experiences are not purely passive - they are stirring something within me, prompting me to react and engage with them more deeply.

Limitless, undying love, which shines around me like a million suns
Despite the chaotic and intense nature of my emotional journey, I feel a sense of unconditional love and support emanating from the world and the people around me.

And calls me on and on across the universe
This love seems to be a driving force behind my experiences and emotions, carrying me forward on a path that I may not fully understand but trust nonetheless.

Jai Guru Deva
I am once again connecting with a higher power or acknowledging the presence of divine energy.

Jai Guru Deva
The repetition of this phrase reinforces my spiritual connection and commitment to seeking meaning and guidance in my experiences.

Jai Guru Deva...
The fading of this phrase suggests that my spiritual journey is ongoing and ever-evolving, with more insights and revelations yet to come.
