Answer
hi,and thank you for the question,I do not speak spanish and im not sure how all of the terms would translate so I have tried to be as clear as possable with what these songs lyrics mean,listed below is a summary of what all of the songs you requested mean..sorry it has taken me a couple days to get back to you but with the holiday I have not been on my computer.And if you have any further questions please feel free to ask thank you,Jimmy-


TO THE MOON AND BACK-this song is  about a guy who wants a girl but she doesn't want him, because she has been hurt by guys in the past. And the song is about him asking her to give him a chance and about reasons why she wont give him a chance due to being hurt in the past.Also how he will not hurt or do her wrong  her and how she has given up on love.


UNIVERSE- this song is about, how much he loves his girl(actually he wrote the song about his fantasy girl not his real girl). Its about him holding her and making love to her and just being with her mind body and soul.(Darren Hayes once told in an interview about this song and the reason for it,meaning behind it, and his fantasy girl that is where this came from).

TWO BEDS AND A COFFEE MACHINE- this song is about a women in a physically and mentally abusive relationship.and how she leaves but cant stay away because she can not afford to and can not make it on her own,so she eventually has to go back to the abusive relationship and hide the bruises and act like nothing happened. And the title 2 beds and a coffee machine is referring to a hotel room with 2 beds and a coffee machine where she stays after the fights.This hotel is like a safe place temporarily for her.

GUNNING DOWN ROMANCE- this song is about a guy who does not believe in romance or love anymore because he has had bad luck in love and romance in the past,and how heartache and misery is all he  has  experienced in love in the past.
