Lyrics for The Universe

[offset:0] Talk to me I don't want to hear poetry Say it plain Like how you really speak The universe For what it's worth Everything is listening For what it means Spit it out Every doubt Poison flower We can all agree The universe For better or worse It's the only place To be I'm serious I don't really care, I'm serious I don't really care about a About a single thing Everything is listening For what it means Everything is listening For what it means So talk to me I don't want to hear poetry Just say it plain Like how you really speak The universe Could be worse It's the only place There is to be
