Soft Universe is the seventh track on the EP "Infections Of A Different Kind - Step 1". It was written, recorded and performed on the 2017's song-writing camp on Bergen with three other songs (two of them called "Ocean Rose" and "Wavelengths").
About the song
AURORA wrote this song with Couros, Fiona Bevan, and Jakwob during Bergen Songs in April. They set up 11 more days to work together in May/June to write more songs.
This song possibly discusses the pain of living in the world, and suggests that this pain can be alleviated with the love of someone else who can make a hard and unforgiving world into a “soft” and lovely one. but this depends on the person who listens to the song, since AURORA stated that the songs of this EP can have different meanings to everyone depending on how deep you dive in them.
Lyrics
There's ice in my water
And when I drink, it cuts my tongue
There's glass on the playground
That cuts my skin when I run
And from the dark, into the light
I saw a star burst into life
And in the corner of your eye
I saw a dream that never died
Speak to me, speak to me
With love in your words
Make for me, make for me
A soft universe
My body falls off the side of her bed
And now I know what love feels like
Don't let me turn into pain
All of this is loveliness
Chaos came, we laid our heads
Down on the feather cotton bed
You find a heart and catch your breath
Let the universe go red
Speak to me, speak to me
With love in your words
Make for me, make for me
A soft universe
Speak to me, speak to me
With, with
Make for me, make for me
A soft universe
Soft universe
Soft universe
Soft universe
Soft universe
Soft universe
Soft universe
Soft universe
Soft universe
