Kevin Max Universal You
[Verse 1]
With all of us she/he/they/whatever you choose
Of the neighborhood building blocks to our communal refuge
Of electro black and whites
Of yellows and oranges, red and gray
We stand on the precipice of change
But we are only earthen vessels
Of grime and pallid soot
We rub off on each other
Feeling the root, just another root
To be dug up and re-planted
Going back into the ground
Six feet down
The skeletal chamber
Where the soul is enshrined
Until its time
Of rebirth
[Chorus]
Universal You
Universal You
[Verse 2]
Believing all you tune into
Believing what was fed
Every night before bed
The stories you were told
The truth of growing old
But they didn't tell you
It starts again
And again
The slow hum
Of eternity
Working backwards
[Chorus 1]
Universal You
Universal You
Universal You
Universal You
[Post-Chorus]
We are all universalists
We are all universalists
We are from the universe
[Bridge]
Deconstructed
Self-constructed
Self-destruction
[Chorus]
Ah
Universal You
Ah
Universal You
[Verse 3]
Universal You
Believing all you tune into
Believing what was fed
Every night before bed
The stories you were told
The truth of growing old
But they didn't tell you
It starts again
And again
And again
And again
And again
And again
And again
And again
The slow hum
Of eternity
Working backwards
[Chorus 1]
Universal You
Universal You
[Post-Chorus]
We are all universalists
[Chorus 2]
Ah
Universal You
Ah
Universal You
[Outro]
Deconstructed
Self-construction
