Singing to the Universe Lyrics

I'm singing to the universe
And I'm asking if I'm cursed
Because it always ends the same
And I'm screaming your name

My time has come
It's etching ever nearer
The stroke of noon just whispered in my ear
A textbook lie - a bed for corner spiders
They're catching up
And sharpening their teeth now

So I'm singing to the universe
And I'm asking if I'm cursed
Because it always ends the same
And I'm screaming your name
I burn bridges as I walk
You sweat matches, spit fire
Will she rescue me again?
I'm singing to the universe

All my sins
I pray will be forgiven
Just like before, I promise now I'm different
Take me not as wasteful as I've been
Don't let me piss it all away now

So I'm singing to the universe
And I'm asking if I'm cursed
Because it always ends the same
And I'm screaming your name
I burn bridges as I walk
You sweat matches, spit fire
Will she rescue me again?
I'm singing to the universe

Singing to the universe
Singing to the universe

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
