Comparing the universe to single human being, the track sees visible matter as the body, dark matter as the mind and alludes to dark energy as the soul.
Verse 1 Consensus
I am the universe, the first view a person found,
The same in all directions and similar throughout,
Every time I grow its to re-scale the amount,
You can tell I’m ready to shift right now.
It was all Hubble bubble inflating my own space,
Until my expansion rate became a matter of state.
The critical point reached from the action he takes,
The Friedman told me it ends one of 3 ways
I am the universe, relative space and time,
The only part they ever see is in the face of light.
What should I make of life,
When only 5% of what I am is clear to the naked eye. Why?
Behind the body a great mind, that shaped the size,
shadow of the masked actor aka dark matter.
Asking why dark matters, it was a large factor
in data that graphs gathered to see how the stars scattered.
Hold me together in ways that you can’t fathom, way passed atoms,
the unknown makeup of a brain path patterns,
the invisible state that held so much weight
in every changed task to happen.
I am the universe and all it’s meant to be,
Dipped in a sea of soul as dark energy
15% of everything you think matters is what you see,
My mind undefined underneath.
(Chorus) Dana McKeon
Oh I’m the dust from shooting stars, oh..I can light up the galaxy,
But there’s something more to explore, further than the eye can see.
Oh I’m the dust from shooting stars, oh..I can light up the galaxy,
But there’s something more to explore, further than the eye can see.
Verse 2 Consensus
I am a galaxy; we are the universe,
A scale for the masses applied to a different word
They used to study me and observe,
And even though go he got it wrong Jan saw me for who I was first.
Zwicky watched how I behaved in a group,
And showed exactly what our thoughts could make us all do.
He looked who gravitated to whom,
In spite of where the largest and brightest of stars were in the room.
Light bending, the weight of his intention
Changed his facial expression, gravitational lensing.
Because things are clearer when your distance from the situation,
and Vera saw I had an angle I’d been rotating.
A dark halo and flattern by what inside,
Because what goes around comes around flying.
I what’s embodied that caught natural light,
my thoughts are the dark matters behind.
(Chorus) Dana McKeon
Verse 3 Consensus
I am the universe the entire whole,
The mind and the body that evolved.
What is seen in affect of what’s seen and what’s not yet known.
The weight of the situation now told.
I am the light and the darkness combined
And so much more that we can’t see because we’re blind.
I’m what’s embodied that caught natural light,
My thoughts are the dark matters behind.
