Universal
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Put it out there ask for it
Adamantly passionate
With a fist in the air like an activist
Ya'll need a little bit of happiness
The world's mad enough as is
You want realistic? This is
Entertainment we decorate it
We can hide away and make a day of it
Got a lot of information
What good can you do with it
Telling us what the real world isn't doesn't make you any more in it
I believe good things can happen
Sing along as the world's collapsing
Crack a smile in good fashion
Take a break from the action
Universal
It's a small world
Cosmic meltdown
Dress is formal
Universal
Find eternal
Cosmic meltdown
Dress is formal
Ya'll need to move to it
Do it don't play stupid
You get your hands in the atmos
Go on ahead and clap those
This goes out to those who know how to let go and enjoy the show
From down the road to around the globe
What little we know I'm willing to let go breathe slow
Optimist in a mosh pit
Sit down on top of the world with a good view to watch it
Organize the chaotic
Talk to God like it's obvious
None of which consists of politics or the apocalypse
Universal
It's a small world
Cosmic meltdown
Dress is formal
Universal
Find eternal
Cosmic meltdown
Dress is formal
The night is yours to enjoy
Give us what we came here for
Love builds pride destroys
Lift your voice and make some noise
Picket signs protest justice for the oppressed
It all feels pretty hopeless
Take a moment to catch your breath
Feet on the floor
Music in the air
Reality will still be there for you when the song is through
Twenty four seven breaking news
This just in but I'm not paying attention
Ignorance isn't bliss but taking a break from it is
Universal
It's a small world
Cosmic meltdown
Dress is formal
Universal
Find eternal
Cosmic meltdown
Dress is formal
