Shrinking Universe

2001

Written by Matt Bellamy

Produced by John Leckie

Lyrics

Shrinking Universe

[Verse 1] Cast your ideals onto me And I'll show you what you really need Give too much attention And I'll reflect your imperfections [Chorus] Can't you see it's over? Because you're the god Of a shrinking universe [Verse 2] Purposeless survival Now there's nothing left to die for So don't struggle to recognize Now they call it heartfelt suicide [Chorus] Can't you see it's over? Because you're the god Of a shrinking universe Can't you see it's over? Because you're the god Of a shrinking universe
