Inside Of You There Is A Universe. This is pop music about loving yourself.

But what about loving others? That depends entirely on how you spoon it. Opening your heart to anyone can feel scary and even dangerous. Too often we get stuck in the rut of codependency. ‘Inside of You…’ is a musical antidote to dependency, reminding us that a healthy relationship of any kind is built on the solid foundations of each individual — the trust that we can each hold our own equally.

In that sense, the Spice Girls got it backwards. There is no real ‘2 Become 1’ to strive for, but a beauty in ‘the surrender’ that we ourselves can only control. In self-reliance, we ditch the phrase ‘my better half’ for the path of self-containment. As your own person, you are your own universe, forever separate from the other. Growing and expanding around each other as a means to become centred, fully rounded and stronger. ... more

lyrics

I’ll take what you have to give me
I’ll make sure that it gets through
Cos, inside of you, there’s a universe
It’s one you let me step into

I break my sleep when I’m around you
My cells they dance and they excite
Your ways are ones I can learn from
A creative fire you ignite, in, me

I tiptoed around you to begin with
I kept my voice down to a hush
So fearful of you getting in here
A situation I didn’t want to rush

But instead you never strayed from your path
You always help me to clear the leaves off of mine
There’s no need to withdraw from the space that I’ve made
You’re welcome around anytime

So let me take what you have to give me
Let me make sure that it gets through
Cos inside of you there’s a universe
And it’s one, you let me step into
