In the context of spaceflight, a satellite is an object which has been placed into orbit by human endeavour. Such objects are sometimes called artificial satellites to distinguish them from natural satellites such as the Moon.
The world's first artificial satellite, the Sputnik 1, was launched by the Soviet Union in 1957. Since then, thousands of satellites have been launched into orbit around the Earth; also some satellites, notably space stations, have been launched in parts and assembled in orbit. Artificial satellites originate from more than 50 countries and have used the satellite launching capabilities of ten nations. A few hundred satellites are currently operational, whereas thousands of unused satellites and satellite fragments orbit the Earth as space debris. A few space probes have been placed into orbit around other bodies and become artificial satellites to the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and the Sun.
Satellites are used for a large number of purposes. Common types include military and civilian Earth observation satellites, communications satellites, navigation satellites, weather satellites, and research satellites. Space stations and human spacecraft in orbit are also satellites. Satellite orbits vary greatly, depending on the purpose of the satellite, and are classified in a number of ways. Well-known (overlapping) classes include low Earth orbit, polar orbit, and geostationary orbit.
Andrew Ross McMahon (born September 3, 1982) is a singer/songwriter. He is the vocalist, pianist and primary songwriter for the bands Something Corporate and Jack's Mannequin; he also performs solo.
McMahon was born in Concord, Massachusetts. He briefly lived in New Jersey until 1991, when his family moved to Bexley, Ohio where he attended Cassingham Elementary School. His family relocated frequently due to his father's occupation in retail. McMahon recalls that while he was in fourth grade, they briefly stayed in California to support his mother's family after the loss of her brother. The death had a large impact on the family, and Andrew has a tattoo on his forearm in his uncle's memory. Following the death of his uncle, who was a musician himself, McMahon became inspired to get involved with music, and began teaching himself piano very soon afterward.
McMahon's family decided to settle in California shortly before he entered eighth grade. He would later describe himself as "a pudgy, outgoing, artistic little kid who never quite fit into the California scene". He graduated from the public Dana Hills High School in 2000.
David John "Dave" Matthews (born January 9, 1967) is a South African-American musician and actor, best known as the lead vocalist, songwriter, and guitarist for the Dave Matthews Band. He performs mainly with acoustic guitar and favors rhythm rather than solos in his playing.
David John Matthews was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, the third of four children of parents John and Valerie Matthews. At two years old, Matthews' family moved to Yorktown Heights in Westchester County, New York, where his father, a physicist, started working for IBM.
In 1974, the family moved to Cambridge, England, for a year before returning to New York, where his father died from lung cancer in 1977. Biographer Nevin Martell argues that Dave's father's death may be an impetus for his "carpe diem" lyrics. At some point while residing in New York, Matthews attended his first concert, when his mother took him to a performance by Pete Seeger. The family moved back to Johannesburg, South Africa, in 1977.
Upon Matthews' graduation from St Stithians College high school in 1985, he was faced with conscription into the South African military just as civil disobedience to the practice was becoming widespread. A Quaker (and consequently pacifist), Matthews left South Africa to avoid service.

I turn to leave and you grab my sleeve
You say, "Why so fast, can? t we make this last?"
I said, "Ten years that? s a mighty long time"
It seems by now you could? ve made up your mind
You just want me to be a
Satellite to your sun
I want to fly free in heaven
Satellite you want me
To be caught in your gravity
You pull me in then you push away again
What scares you the most is when I get too close
And you? re terrified of being alone
So you keep me hanging on
You just want me to be a
Satellite to your sun
I want to fly free in heaven
Satellite you want me
To be caught in your gravity
I will travel far to find the star
That every now and then will spin around me
Baby, I refuse to be a
Satellite to your sun
I want to fly free in heaven
Satellite you want me
To be a victim of your gravity
Satellite to your sun
Satellite to your sun
Moonlight, starlight
Insight, out of sight
Something's certain
Draw the curtains, draw them
Take the night when it calls
Take the night when it falls
When it falls, when it falls, when it falls
You will, I might
Talking satellites
Rockets, comets
Something's coming
Take the night when it calls
Take the night when it falls
When it falls
Take the night when it falls
What out, all out
In doubt, far out
Wheels in motion
Take it, take it, take it the potion
Take the night when it calls
Take the night when it falls
When it falls, when it falls, when it falls
Moonlight
Starlight
Insight
Out of sight
Take the night when it calls
Take the night when it falls
When it calls, when it falls
When it falls, when it calls
When it falls, when it falls
When it calls, when it falls
Oh when it falls
It falls, it falls
It falls, it falls
lanterns reflecting on the water
signposts sent from the sky
dark pillars threaten you on your way
through the lands of your soul
you are rolling in the midst of your sparkling universe
not knowing if you can fly
maybe somewhere maybe someday
and your ship can't reach the shore
on the track of a wandering satellite
our silent flight on a starry night
to places that no once can find
flying blind time out of mind
your footprints on the gravel of the daily grind
though you never touched the ground
the stars beyond reach hold you spellbound
in the lands of your soul
and the cold facts never came to your mind
that your life became a close merry-go-round
you roam the streets of your small town
and your ship can't reach the shore
on the track of a wandering satellite
our silent flight on a starry night
to places that no once can find
flying blind time out of mind
flying blind time out of mind
dark is the water the sounds of the sea
all the posts have lost their light
too far away nobody came to your call
into the lands of your soul
you are still on the bridge that ship out of control
while the waves take you out into the night
as you refused to read the signs on the wall
and your ship will never reach the shore
on the track of a wandering satellite
our silent flight on a starry night
to places that no once can find
the popstar radio crown is gone
the popstar radio sound is gone
i think that you are walking backwards
you said you're sick of all the bastards
i thought that it was alright
when you told me last night
so i said that you could come along
when it comes down
and then it goes around
you want to have your cake and mine too
but everyone i know ignores you
theres several things around you
as question marks surround you
so you think that you better run away
when it comes down
and then it goes around
the popstar radio crown is gone
the popstar radio sound is gone
i think you're swimming in your sorrow
you said you're sick because you got up
i thought that it was alright
when you told me last night
so i said that you could come along
when it comes down
and then it goes around
the popstar radio crown is gone
the popstar radio sound is gone
Falling asleep
In the backseat
The radio is on
I feel alive
Only when it's dark out
Only when it's quiet
Lost all my strength
While gazing out
The backglass
As powerlines rush
By like my life
I'm alive
A satellite
A satellite
[Chorus:]
Take courage in this thing
You're in a sleepless time
Your lonliness is fashioned
From the holiest of days
In the palace hear you sing
Hiding from the lies
Your orbit's
Left you stranded
Drifting in the sea
I cannot think
Here must be forgotten
All your aches and woes
I cannot move
Once was in the shadows
Now pulled forth in light
Come and take my hand child
Follow only me
Satellite
Satellite, satellite
[Chorus]
After the fall
It's a horrible thing
A secret thing
She won't be saved
It's a complex thing
Unusual thing
I saw the seasons change
An endless stream
Of days gone by
She turned
To see the faces
Can't she see
Just how sad they seem
After the rain
The road's so black
Was my heart so black
Dry like the leaves
It blows me away
Here I am again
Waiting on the moment you decide
To leave me stranded on the edge of nowhere
I’ve been so close to you so many times
I feel like I could drown
I wish that I could fly away from here
But I’m still coming down
From the last time
That you came around
In the starlight
Now I’m pulling to your gravity
Spinning helplessly
I’m falling through the night
Like a lonely satellite
Like a lonely satellite
With walks on Jupiter
Fool around the moon a time or two
Left a mark on every star we could find
But now I’m burning like a meteor
That never hits the ground
Wish that I could fly away from you
But I’m still coming down
From the last time
That you came around
In the starlight
Now I’m pulling to your gravity
Spinning helplessly
I’m falling through the night
Like a lonely satellite
Love is poisoning the atmosphere
Is keeping everything unclear to me
Something in your eyes
Never satisfies
I’m feeling so alone, tonight
But I’m still coming down (still coming down)
From the last time (the last time)
That you came around (you came around)
In the starlight (the starlight)
Now I’m pulling to your gravity (ooooh)
Spinning helplessly
I’m falling through the night (falling through the night)
Yes I’m falling through the night (falling through the night)
Like a lonely satellite
Drum beat intro
I slip and sway at every
passing town I think I may be,
Losing my mind.
I ride my bike up the hill
to an abandoned house
On the outskirts of Los Angeles
But no one can see me,
nobody really knows me
at all
Would you be my satellite
Would you be my radar?
They don't understand us,
but it don't matter
Satellite,
Sa-a-a-atellite
I should just get on with it and
say the things I meant to say
For so long
Bit my tongue till I tasted blood
I don't want to lose control
I'm on the edge of my seat
I can feel my heart skip a beat
Would you be my satellite
Would you be my radar?
They don't understand us,
but it don't matter
Satellite,
Sa-a-a-atellite
Satellite.
I write love letters to pass the time
and I'm a radio and you're the frequency I'm on
but it's been so long
since I've been gone
Would you be my satellite
Would you be my radar?
They don't understand us,
but it don't matter
Satellite,
Satellite,
Be my satellite?
Would you be my radar?
They don't understand us,
no no
But it don't matter
Satellite
Suburban kid, ya got no name
Two ton(e) baby and ya got no brain
I bet you're only happy in suburbian dreams
But I'm only laughing cause you ain't in my scheme
Hey baby
I love you
I love you
I love you
I only ever listen when you're on the phone
From your safety where you sit at home
When I got nothin' better to do
Then there is always you
Cause you're good for my shoe
Hey baby
I love you
I love you
I love you
I'm in love
Yeah in love
Oh, can't you feel it?
No I don't like where you come from
It's just a satellite of London
And when you look me in the eye
Just remember that I wanna die
Hey baby
I love you
I love you
I love you
You're the name but you can't tell
Lookin' like you just came outta hell
How did ya figure that'd you'd any use?
All you're gonna get is my abuse
Hey baby
I love you
I love you
I love you
every day the satellite
seems to be the door of someone's reach
every day the satellite
seems a little further on the beach
satellites and stags
i'm growing betsy in a bag
and she don't mind
as long as things are round
every day the satellite
jerky little canister of gold
who's to be the satellite
with inches of whole betsy growing cold
i'm into you so far
i'm out the other side
and orbiting is just a waste of time
next time i get into you
i swear to god i won't come out again
swear to god i won't come out again
satellites and stags
i'm growing betsy in a bag
and she don't mind
as long as things are round
every day the satellite
Living on the edge of the world
Come on up and get with it girls
Riding round
Leave me alone
I got a long way to go
Real time
Don't pay me no mind
Satellite
Satellite
Satellite
Goes around (goes around)
Satellite
Satellite
Satellite
Goes around (goes around)
Cut a path through the stars
Brain gets wicked in the dark
Mark my way with broken arms
I got a long way to go
Real time
Don't pay me not mind
Satellite

Goes around

Don't pay me no mind

Satellite
I see you floating by me
I see a beautiful face
It's pointed straight up towards the smog
I know I know you feel me beaming
Can you sense my burning x-ray vision
As you roll on by now
You must be gravitating
To the vibe I'm generating or maybe not 'yet
I have known you forever
You pushed the reset button on the counter of my heart
But you'll laugh at my advances
But still I've gotta chance it as I watch your dust
You do it You do it for me that's how I know that you are mine
I send out to you
Frequencies exceeding the speeding laws of sound
I extend out to you
The satellite that will orbit your mind until your down
That's how I know that's how I know
I'm the asteroid that will infiltrate your soul
That's how I know that's how I know
Rolling back towards the continent
instrumental forces die
save excitement for line behavior
signal shifting to enter flight
my back is burning
in the heat of the atmosphere
my engine roars
and the throttle cries
I'm not pulling on my navigation
bringing me down out of the sky
I've seen the face
It seems they've always been here
ten thousand years tonight
copy Houston, request location
signal over...Satellite
The madness creeping
with system failure
the image scatters
and the comlink fades
the red planet below me hungry
the red planet below me waits
(bridge)
(chorus)
Is this satellite?
I am revolving around Your sun
Sending a message to everyone
Wanna be Your signal
Wanna be Your sound
Can You feel it now?
(Be Your satellite)
To this world I'm shining like a star
(Burning through the night)
Reflect Your love, be Your satellite
Write Your name across the sky
Tell them the reasons why
Your love will never fail
Wanna be Your signal
Wanna be Your sound
Can You feel it now?
(Be Your satellite)
To this world I'm shining like a star
(Burning through the night)
Reflect Your love
(Be your satellite)
To this world I'm shining like a star
(Burning through the night)
Reflect Your love, be Your satellite
I am revolving around Your sun
Sending a message to everyone
(Be Your satellite)
To this world I'm shining like a star
(Burning through the night)
Reflect Your love, be Your satellite
(Be Your satellite)
To this world I'm shining like a star
(Burning through the night)
Reflect Your love, be Your satellite
(Be Your satellite)
To this world I'm shining like a star
(Burning through the night)
Oh way oh
hey.
hey.
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
So what divides From the bittersweetness love provides
I will redefine my place within this union
For what is a lie?
And the better me can't show its side
I will try to find my way to higher ground
Ohhhhh! There's a million stories
And a million ways to get there from here
Baby, I'm gonna put your skin on mine.
Be inside you all my life
But if you let your heart open up your mind
There's a whole new world on the other side
I'm gonna be your satellite
My hand over your world at night
And I can hear you sleep beneath the candlelight
I can see your dreams like they were mine
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
Way oh way oh
When I, I hear you scream i hear your cry
It makes me realize I'm only human
For what relies on the balance between love and pride?
Then I'll abandon all my pride and bring you love
Ohhhh! There's a million reasons
And a million ways to get to your heart
Baby, I'm gonna make you step outside
The corners of your world and find
That if you let your heart open up your mind
There's a whole new world on the other side
I'm gonna be your satellite
Now hand over your world at night
And I can hear you sleep beneath the candlelight
I can see your dreams like they were mine
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
(Instrumental Break)
Baby, I'm gonna put your skin on mine
Be inside you all my life
But if you let your heart open up your mind
There's a whole new world on the other side
I'm gonna be your satellite
Now hand over your world at night
And I can hear you sleep beneath the candle-light
I can see your dreams like they were mine
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
While the hands are pointing up midnight You're a question mark Coming after people you watched collide You can ask what you want to the satellite Because the names you drop put ice in my veins And for all you know You're the only one who finds it strange When they call it a lover's moon The satellite Because it acts just like lovers do The satellite A burned out world you know Staying up all night The satellite
While the hands are pointing up midnight
You're a question mark coming after people you watched collide
You can ask what you want to the satellite
Cos the names you drop put ice in my veins
And for all you know, you're the only one who finds it strange
When the call it a lover's moon
The satellite
Cos it acts just like lovers do
The satellite
A burned-out world you know
Staying up all night
Yesterday was pouring
Like a test on Monday morning
I got high, I got high
I dunno where I’m goin’
It’s like the desert when it’s snowin’
Inside out, upside down
But then something happens
You float by and I say
Damn
Thought you were gone
I thought I left you in the back of my mind
Don’t get me wrong
Maybe you’re right
You got me feelin’ like a satellite
Tomorrow could be something
But today I feel like jumping
Anything goes, tell me who knows
And people drivin’ slowly
And I’m thinking if I only had my stash
I’d float on past
But then something happened
You walked by and I say
Damn
Thought you were gone
I thought I left you in the back of my mind
Don’t get me wrong
Maybe you’re right
You got me feelin’ like a satellite
I say damn
Thought you were gone
I thought I left you in the back of my mind
Don’t get me wrong
Maybe you’re right
You got me feelin’ like a satellite
Mmm floating, feeling, hanging, loving
Satellite you know is coming
You know it’s coming baby, yeah
Falling, dropping, saying, sawing, holding, touching,
Need some loving
And I’m minding my own business
But then something happened
You walked by and I say
Damn
Thought you were gone
I thought I left you in the back of my mind
Don’t get me wrong
Maybe you’re right
You got me feelin’ like a satellite
I say damn
Thought you were gone
I thought I left you in the back of my mind
Don’t get me wrong
Maybe you’re right
You got me feelin’ like a satellite
Like a sa-sa-sa-satellite yeah
Thirty more channels than you need
I could tune in free
Some rabbit ears, some foil in a hanger
Static on channel 13
Cleared long enough for a scene
A jet flew over head and it faded
Couldn?t find you any place upon my screen
Bought a satellite, bought a satellite, bought a satellite
Satellite
Dug up from the depths of [unverified], sewer southern flow
A boy I couldn?t name, I knew well
[Unverified] still a rambler, useless to my call
You?re nowhere to be found on the airwaves
Couldn?t find you any place upon my screen
Bought a satellite, bought a satellite, bought a satellite
Satellite
So far from my reach
Close enough to see
I sleep beside the set at night and I can?t let you leave
Couldn?t find you any place upon my screen
Need to [unverified] and I?m coming for your love over there
Nothing along the [unverified]
Nothing I want to see but your face
Couldn?t find you any place upon my screen
Bought a satellite
passer son temps la tête en l'air
à contempler le ciel à l'envers
ailleurs
ailleurs
tourner tout autour de la terre
à rechercher dans quel univers
meilleur
meilleur
là-haut sur la mer étoilée
sur mon bateau j'observerai
dans l'espace et les galaxies
où poser mon satellite
là-haut sur la mer étoilée
de mon vaisseau je regarderai
dans quel endroit insolite
où placer mon satellite
quand je vous ai vue la première fois
une ingénue du haut de son toit
ailleurs
ailleurs
et vous m'avez montré du doigt
un peu perdue dans vos émois
en pleurs
en pleurs
là-haut sur la mer étoilée
sur mon bateau je te protégerai
je deviendrai pour toi un mythe
je serai ton satellite
là-haut sur la mer étoilée
de mon vaisseau je te défendrai
et tu voudras que je t'invite
à l'intérieur de mon satellite
là-haut sur la mer étoilée
sur mon bateau j'observerai
dans l'espace et les galaxies
où poser mon satellite
là-haut sur la mer étoilée
de mon vaisseau je regarderai
dans quel endroit insolite
As water laps my feet
And sharks surround me I sleep
You smile and line up your army
But my enemies can't get near me
Because i claimed victory that day, now I'm calm
I have seen in your eyes how much you suffer
With the dark
Where shining stars light the heavens
We satellites hope to reach
And my blackwater reflects them for me
Come on lets make our move
They don't see a thing that they can't see through
But shining stars light the heavens
We satellites can't compete
But tonight the blackwater reflects them for me
Where shining stars light the heavens
We lesser lights hope to reach
And my blackwater reflects them for me
for me for me.
Redemption will pour, crashes to the floor
And a million cold thoughts won't stop you feeling warm
Get love
Give up freely now
Burn strong
Get along like cold fire
Float around like satellite
Cause your beautiful and I see you
And Right line for the good kind of spirits now
It's a slight smile to a small child and it looks good on you
Cause your beautiful and I see you
Oh and it's not for sale
Its' not for sale
Cause you wear it well, and you know it
It's not for sale
It's not for sale
Cause you wear it well, and you know it
Watch the time I see you run around
Sit there tight I know that you needn't worry about it anymore
Cause your beautiful and I see you
Oh and it's not for sale
It's not for sale
Cause you wear it well, and you know it
It's not for sale
Its not for sale
Cause you wear it well, and you know it
It's not for sale
Its not for sale
Cause you wear it well and you know it
Time is ours

The sky is on fire with yellow
there’s a lay ya down sunset
hittin’ your eyes
and a classical guitar
and a cello

oh circle round the world tonight
holding onto you
I think I might go where my heart is at
(Oh, way, oh)
Hey, hey
(Oh, way, oh)
(Oh, way, oh)
So what divides
From the bittersweetness love provides?

They walked across the strip to the kittycats' clutch
I'm in love with a girl named Satellite
And I know that she'll take me home tonight
They're very cute - so select them quickly
Perhaps one day you'll strike a hotter match
I'm in love with a girl named Edison
And her sweetness is my only medicine
Satellite
Goin right
We'd like you to leave immediately.
(Next subject...)
We can see the satellite at uh, a distance of about uh, i guess over 15 miles here.
It looked like a star as you looked up.
See here, we have a beautiful view of the earth down below as the satellite departs.
She smells of the sun
and she's constantly saying
that's it's all right,
because lies sound so nice.
And like soil to seed goes
to casting my fears aside...
She says, ";The satellite is coming";.
I pray, the wrecking ball is waining
She says, ";The satellite is coming.
It's come to take us home";.
Satellite...
Still smells of the sun
and the light that brings healing
is burning my eyes
and the dark seems so nice
and I'm choking on blessings that I can receive
I hide.
She says, ";The satellite is coming";.
I pray, wrecking ball is waining.
She says, ";The satellite is coming.
It's come to take us home";.

Do you lie awake
In the morning
Trying to find
A reason to call me
'Cause honey
All that I've been doing
Is thinking about your smile
But none of this is necessary
With me baby
You see baby
'Cause I like to
Keep it all simple
'Cause you are my
Satellite
So I'm trying to
Keep you in sight
But with all this space
Can we keep it alive
Keep it alive
So I'm asking you baby
Are you coming down tonight
There's something
In the air tonight
That feels right
But you're keeping me
Guessing and I'm
Finding it hard to
Catch your eye
So move a little closer
It's all right
I know
What you're thinking
You've been circling me
(CHORUS)
With a ho double hoop shaw
Riggle laba dope and the
Doodle and the daddle
And the puff of my smoke
And the heaping and the huffing
And the chicken and the choking
And the pickle up a doodle
In the middle of the day
Did you ever hear the story
Of Belinda Onlyque
She was courted by the devil
And she didn't know what to do
He came a-courting
Every evening
(CHORUS)
So Belinda got to thinking
She would be the devil's wife
It was better that than being
An old maid all her life
He came a-courting
Every evening
(CHORUS)
So Belinda told the devil
Sir, if I should marry you
Would you treat me like the devil
Or like better husbands do
He came a-courting
Every evening
(CHORUS)
So the devil told Belinda
Now I'll fetch a load of bricks
And I'll build for you, a mansion
Right upon that fiddle sticks
He came a-courting
Every evening
(CHORUS)
So the devil took Belinda and
He claimed her with a kiss
And no one has ever seen her
From that fatal day to this
He came a-courting
Every evening
(CHORUS)
Now they say that she would
Still be living as the devil's wife
For he spends his time
Far away from marriage strife
But he won't come
Courting in the evening
He came a-courting
Every evening
(CHORUS)
Pickle up a doodle
In the middle of the day
Black and blue I chose my wave
I, the candid castaway
In a way delayed by one more broken season
To find reason for appeasing you and
So I found my guiding light
Lambent, flashing red and white
Through a starry night I'm better nowhere-bound
Than drowning on your solid ground
Satellite, save my life
I'm wishing on a two-way radio
Love might be just like me
Jaded, waiting, all alone
A whisper on a two-way radio
Ahhhhhhh Ahhhhhhh
All in all I fare the same
Wishing on an airplane
As calling stars by name
A lonely song of freedom rings
In hope of someone listening and
So I send my feeble flare
Through the silent arctic air
Heading anywhere
Until at last I've finally found
A place to lay my anchor down
Satellite, save my life
I'm wishing on a two-way radio
Love might be just like me
Jaded, waiting, all alone
You never know never never
Heaven help me I'm
Drowning and I can't save me
Send some salvation
To keep me alive
Satellite, save my life
I'm wishing on a two-way radio
Love might be just like me
Jaded, waiting, all alone
Satellite, save my life
I'm wishing on a two-way radio
Love might be just like me
Jaded, waiting, all alone
A whisper on a two-way radio
Don't make no more an effigy of me Finally abolish this golden temples
Don't let you blinding from that splendor and understanding me more or less wrong
Split a piece of wood and I will be there
Or pick up a stone and you will find me
All what's around you that is me
Not imprisoned by wealth and splendor
Can't you see the blind man's painting
Can't you hear the deaf man's singing
They are liars
You pay for your trust, for this wrong game in that world
They are liars
Himself the devil laughs, they did create his falseness
They are liars
Trapped by their gold and their splendor, so they pass me blind
They are liars
For the wealth and their force, they turned my God's world around
So I can only be in you kind heart
Can't exist if you don't believe in me
Only that faith comes all from you Didn't need the glory and church power
What's all these suffer and that splendor
They need just to resist about all these seductions
wrong faiths twisting your deranged brain
And now you're passing me yet blind
Can't you see the blind man's painting
Can't you hear the deaf man's singing
They are liars
You pay for your trust, for this wrong game in that world
They are liars
Himself the devil laughs, they did create his falseness
They are liars
Trapped by their gold and their splendor, so they pass me blind
They are liars
I was walking with a girl just the other day
I was walking with a girl, yeah
We were talking in a movie it was getting pretty groovy
I was walking with a girl, yeah
I'm gonna turn my TV off
I'm gonna turn my TV off
I'm gonna open the door
I'm gonna go outside
I'm gonna turn my TV off
Look at me I'm a satellite
Look at me
Well I finally got a job I was feeling pretty good
Yeah I finally got a job, yeah
I was spending all my money on the sweetest little
honey
I finally got a job
I'm gonna turn my TV off
I'm gonna turn my TV off
I'm gonna open the door
I'm gonna walk outside
I'm gonna turn my TV off
Look at me I'm a satellite
Look at me
Look at me I'm a satellite
Look at me
All I need, all I need
All I need is all I bleed...
I was talking to a girl just the other day
I was talking with a girl, yeah
We were ??? in a movie, it was getting pretty groovy
I was talking to a girl, yeah
Look at me I'm a satellite
Look at me...
Shoot me up and I shine so bright
Look at me
I went everywhere for you
I even did my hair for you
I bought new underwear, they're blue
And I wore ‘em just the other day
Love, you know I'll fight for you
I left on the porch light for you
Whether you are sweet or cruel
I'm gonna love you either way
Love, oh, love, I gotta tell you how I feel about you
‘Cause I, oh, I can't go a minute without your love
Like a satellite, I'm in an orbit all the way around you
And I would fall out into the night
Can't go a minute without your love
Love, I got it bad for you
I saved the best I have for you
You sometimes make me sad and blue
Wouldn't have it any other way
Love, my aim is straight and true
Cupid's arrow is just for you
I even painted my toe nails for you
I did it just the other day
Love, oh, love, I gotta tell you how I feel about you
‘Cause I, oh, I can't go a minute without your love
Like a satellite I'm in an orbit all the way around you
And I would fall out into the night
Can't go a minute without your love
Oh, love, I gotta tell you how I feel about you
‘Cause I, oh, I can't go a minute without your love
Where you go, I'll follow
You set the pace, we'll take it fast and slow
I'll follow in your way,
You got me, you got me
A force more powerful than gravity
It's physics, there's no escape
Love, my aim is straight and true
Cupid's arrow is just for you
I even painted my toe nails for you
I did it just the other day
Love, oh, love, I gotta tell you how I feel about you
‘Cause I, oh, I can't go a minute without your love
Like a satellite I'm in orbit all the way around you
And I would fall out into the night
Can't go a minute without your
Love, oh, love, I gotta tell you how I feel about you
‘Cause I, oh, I can't go a minute without your love
Now hear this my friends
I'll never be the same again
Gonna lock myself in a cold black room
Put a shadow over myself and a veil of gloom
I will function, operate
I will be a satellite of hate
A satellite of hate
Driving to this point by a chain of events
Each one pushed me nearer the edge
Gonna send my message through to you
And you'll receive the signal too
I will function, operate
I will be a satellite of hate
A satellite of hate, higher, higher
Disillusioned, I was disenchanted
Forgot the love that had been implanted
Heard the lies and I felt the cold
It broke my heart and I lost control
Now I'm a satellite of instinct
I'm a satellite of hate
I'll understand if you're not feeling well enough to write
I'll understand if you've got way too many things to do
you see I've been sitting here for an hour trying to finish what I started
Now it seems every line gets harder and never really what I wanna say
So I hope this letter finds you well
It's taken me a little while to sit and spell out everything I wanna say
But I think I'm ready to convey
You're the reason that I play at all
You got me thinking how a song can change it all
If there's any wonder how I made it through
Well I tell them that's between me and you, well
Someday I'll thank you if I see you around
But for now I'll just keep this letter to myself
And a song I'll probably never sing for you
Like a satellite
Spinning 'round my head in sound
You got me thinking how a song can change it all
If there's any wonder how I made it through
Well I tell them that's between me and you, well
Someday I'll thank you if I see you around
But for now I'll just keep this letter to myself
And a song I'll probably never sing for you
Like a satellite
Spinning 'round my head in sound
When you're sixteen and you're full of pain
Yeah nothing matters much but the sound of broken bottles and hearts
And the ties that bind you to what you can't ignore
In a world where I had no control I used my voice as a weapon that I could hold
I screamed and shouted until I played
I meant every single word I said
You're the reason that I care at all
You got me thinking how a song can change it all
If there's anyone that I want to hear
Well nothing's ever been so clear
Someday I'll thank you if I see you around
But for now I'll just keep this letter to myself
And a song I'll probably never sing for you
Like a satellite
Spinning 'round my head in sound
Like a song I won't forget
Oh satellite spinning 'round my head
Like a song I won't forget
When we're all grown up and looking for that anger nothing matters much
But the reasuring sound of a voice buzzing through the stereo
All this imagery and sound
With words that bite and tear out
So watch me for myself
zooming past, a falling little meteorite
bound to its core, a perception of a lifetime remorse
down it goes, rushing on like never before
down it goes, it isn't stopping till its fed up with life
slow burn. try to get a direction soon
you are a satellite up in the sky
if only you were blind
guilty taste, just the speed of a meteorite
flashing past, just a memory of promises made
now it goes, bound for earth like never before
now it goes, its just waiting for a moment to turn
slow burn. try to get a direction soon
you are a satellite up in the sky
if only you were blind
only a satellite, way too high
With my knees up on the dashboard,
I watch the stars like grains of sand.
And underneath my sleeping bag,
The nightclub stamp still glows on my hand.
Through the rearview mirror, things become much clearer
Than they've ever been.
And if this is a mistake, remind me to make
More of them.
Somedays my bad days, gang up on good days.
Somedays the world weighs too much for me to want to stay.
And I feel like a satellite
I feel like a satellite
I feel like a satellite
I feel like a satellite
And just when things were looking right and feeling good,
It all came crashing down.
Educated guess was my uneducated best
I confound. (that's not right)
Problems after problems piled high on problems
Probably tried to touch the sun.
You're anything I can imagine,
Right beneath my notice life had just begun.
Now my bad days end up on good days.
Now the grade's made in my own little ways.
And I feel like a satellite
I feel like a satellite
I feel like a satellite
Long lost friend
Where have you been?
I could write a novel
On things being alright in the end
I'm sick, become an eyesore
In the same breath I'd loose the battle
But win the war
Oh how did it come to this?
I break more than I give
Think of all the sunsets
You never told me different
You only showed me imprints
Of the faces I once cared for,
Oh my hollow heart beats
I guess I’ve already gone this far
I couldn’t say it any faster
Put up with me
Watch me become an addiction
I just want some love
Corrupted radio transmission
From a satellite
That I set alight
I told you
Won't you come back soon?
Panicked on the outside
I'm a lover on the inside
I would trade it all for
A weekend at the seaside
In the things I say and do
And all the places I've been to
Who’s got time for me now?
I only stopped to kiss you
Oh wherever my heart may be
That’s where you'll find me
Think of all the heartbreak
Think of all the mistakes
You know I still drink
Shots in the dark like you
I guess I’ve already gone this far
I couldn’t say it any faster
Put up with me
Watch me become an addiction
I just want some love
Corrupted radio transmission
From a satellite
That I set alight
I told you
Won't you come back soon?
Until “best friend’s” halts all conversation
Would you call me up? Would you throw me away?
Like hugs mid day to save communication
Until making mistakes becomes a desperation
When you walk out on me for someone more
Will you wish you'd said a little less
Than you did before?
Put up with me
Watch me become an addiction
I just want some love
Corrupted radio transmission
From a satellite
That I set alight
I told you
Black and blue I chose my way
I, the candid castaway
In a way delayed by one more broken season
To find reason for appeasing you and
So I found my guiding light
Lambent, flashing red and white
Through a starry night I'm better nowhere-bound
Than drowning on your solid ground
Satellite, save my life
I'm wishing on a two-way radio
Love might be just like me
Jaded, waiting, all alone
A whisper on a two-way radio
Ahhhhhhh Ahhhhhhh
All in all I fare the same
Wishing on an airplane
Its callin stars by name
A lonely song of freedom rings
In hope of someone listening and
So I send my feeble flare
Through the silent arctic air
Heading anywhere
Until at last i've finally found
A place to lay my anchor down
Satellite, save my life
I'm wishin on a two-way radio
Love might be just like me
Jaded, waiting, all alone
You never know never never
Heaven help me I'm
Drownin and I can't save me
Send some salvation
To keep me alive
Satellite, save my life
I'm wishin on a two-way radio
Love might be just like me
Jaded, waiting, all alone
Satellite, save my life
I'm wishin on a two-way radio
Love might be just like me
Jaded, waiting, all alone
A whisper on a two-way radio
Ahhhhhhhhh Ahhhhhhhhh Ahhhhhhhhh
Ohhhuh Ohhhuh, Ohhhuh Ohhhuh, Like Satellites, Ohhhuh Ohhhuh...
[Verse 1:]
Hah, Hey. Girl, you feelin' like it's lust.
I'm thinkin' that it's love and it's feelin like a rush.
You fiendin for a tickle, I just wanna be the touch.
And if you feelin' crippled, I just wanna be ya crutch.
Trust.
The lames in ya past gave you bad health.
They didn't want you, I'm a take you off the back shelf.
So when I kiss ya lips, tell me how that felt.
And maybe later we can kick it like a black belt.
Hah.
So if you with it, baby come through.
Just wanna be the finish line that you run to. (Ohhhuh)
The one ya give ya heart, ya kindey and lungs to.
So take my hand babygirl and we can 1, 2,
Step.
On the beach or somethin.
We can look at the waves and have a deep discussion. (Ohhhuh)
I'm the king, you're the queen,
We'll pair up the cards.
And you can join me on the rooftop,
We'll stare at the stars.
[Chorus:]
Breathe it in and let it out,
Hold my hand and close your eyes.
Let me kiss you to the sky,
While I orbit through your mind like satellites.
Ohhhuh Ohhhuh, Ohhhuh Ohhhuh, Like Satellites, Ohhhuh Ohhhuh...
While I orbit through your mind like Satel...
[Verse 2:]
I say.
Baby, you ain't convinced that I'm tryna give you the best love.
You sittin' here and I'm tryna show you what's next, love.
You the reason I'm never mad or upset cause,
Right now my heart makes more sense then my head does.
Just think about everything that me and you could do,
I saw a lot of girls, but I'm just viewin' you.
Girls tell me their names and I don't know who is who...
But I remember faces and your's is beautiful.
And you wanna ride with me, it's true.
I already know everything that we, can do. (Ohhhuh)
And you and me are one but what they see, as two.
So basically the best thing about me, is you. (Ohhhh)
And,
Honestly baby, I just need you to trust.
I'm a earn it with actions, it means that much. (Ohhhuh)
I'm sorry if I'm ramblin' and goin' on and such,
But baby come close, cause I just need you to just... (Ohhhh)
[Chorus: x2]
Breathe it in and let it out,
Hold my hand and close your eyes.
Let me kiss you to the sky,
While I orbit through your mind like satellites.
Ohhhuh Ohhhuh, Ohhhuh Ohhhuh, Like Satellites, Ohhhuh Ohhhuh...
While I orbit through your mind like Satellites.
Breathe it in and let it out,
Hold my hand and close your eyes.
Let me kiss you to the sky,
While I orbit through your mind like satellites.
Ohhhuh Ohhhuh, Ohhhuh Ohhhuh, Like Satellites, Ohhhuh Ohhhuh...
While I orbit through your mind like Satellites...
I'm so unsure of what I'd say to you
If you'd listen
my words could cut you like a knife
whisper into my ears your darkest dreams
all your secrets
i'll keep them in my heart
come with me tonight in my satellite
we'll go anywhere you want
won't you take a ride in my satellite
we'll do anything you want
i've spent a lifetime living down my name
reputation
perhaps i'll change it for the worse
i'll offer what i can to comfort you
no conditions
our winter's crystal clear
come with me tonight in my satellite
we'll go anywhere you want
won't you take a ride in my satellite
we'll do anything you want
our holiday from misery
come with me tonight in my satellite
we'll go anywhere you want
won't you take a ride in my satellite
we'll do anything you want
Just passed

hello

I found a photo of us today
The memories they came flooding back
Blowing out birthday candles
I was dressed as superman and you were a shining star
We would have only been in fourth grade
My sweet blue eyed childhood valentine
All these years and I miss you so much
First star I see tonight
I'll make a wish I hope comes true
I'd even search the stars for you
I'd even send a satellite
To find a piece of kryptonite
To have you right here by my side
I miss you I wish you were right here
I need you right here by my side
Everyday after class I'd carry your books
You would hold my hand and say to me
That when we grow up we'd get married
But time has a habit of bringing with it change
We've moved away grown up and grown apart
Sometimes I lay awake and wonder if your thinking about me
Like I thinkabout you?
Satellites
Satellites
I wonder how clear it must look from there to here
No obstruction, this selfish corruption
All in this atmosphere
No fear, less tears, only time to catch my breath
I fail to inhale
Your love constricts my chest
Confusion blinded me, mental and physically
And it's because of you that now I can see
So now I can run, I follow the son and ride on to Zion
And dance this last song of freedom
But only time will tell, if it's truly for real
Can't change your mind, all I know this is what I feel
Whether I'm wrong or right, please keep my life in sight
And never take you eyes off me
As I look up to the sky today
Well I can see you looking down on me
It brings a smile to my face again
S-S-Satellite
Satellites
Satellites
It's truly one of a kind, like star shine
Beyond night time, are you there?
My eyes stare to find
Just what's behind this blind notion of mine
Is it genuine?
'Cause sometimes, it plays tricks with my mind
Some call it asinine
But it's like love or hate, now is that real or fake?
Cause it's a real thin line, but that's your choice to make
The question at hand, help me understand is this your plan?
I think I can, can I think? Then I think I can
Because I won't break and I won't shake
With lifted hands to this man, I'll stand in faith
I'll make it through, my trust in you
Close my eyes, make a wish, kiss the sky
Hey there, I see you
Shining light, shining light
Blinding light, blinding light
Shining light, shining light
Blinding light
S-S-Satellite
Satellites
Satellites
Satellites
(When I look up to the sky today)
(I can feel you looking down on me)
Satellites
(It brings a smile to my face again, satellites)
Satellite, satellite
Guiding light, guiding light
Shining bright, shining bright
Guiding light, guiding light
Satellite
(As I look into the sky today)
Satellite, blinding light
(Satellite)
Blinding light, shining light
(It brings a smile to my face again)
Shining light, guiding light
Guiding light
It's truly one of a kind
Like star shine
Beyond night time
Are you there?
Are you there?
Are you there?
the popstar radio crown is gone
the popstar radio sound is gone
i think that you are walking backwards
you said you're sick of all the bastards
i thought that it was alright
when you told me last night
so i said that you could come along
when it comes down
and then it goes around
you want to have your cake and mine too
but everyone i know ignores you
theres several things around you
as question marks surround you
so you think that you better run away
when it comes down
and then it goes around
the popstar radio crown is gone
the popstar radio sound is gone
i think you're swimming in your sorrow
you said you're sick because you got up
i thought that it was alright
when you told me last night
so i said that you could come along
when it comes down
and then it goes around
the popstar radio crown is gone
Thirty more channels than you need
I could tune in free
Some rabbit ears, some foil in a hanger
Static on channel 13 cleared long enough for a scene
A jet flew over head and it faded
Couldn't find you any place upon my screen
Bought a satellite, bought a satellite, bought a satellite
... satellite
Dug up from the depths of ? ? ? , sewer southern flow
A boy I couldn't name, I knew well
? ? ? still a rambler, useless to my call
You're nowhere to be found on the airwaves
Couldn't find you any place upon my screen
Bought a satellite, bought a satellite, bought a satellite
... satellite
So far from my reach
Close enough to see
I sleep beside the set at night and I can't let you leave
(guitar solo)
Couldn't find you any place upon my screen
Need to (spy? ? ? ) and I'm coming for your love over there
Nothing along the ? ? ? ? ?
Nothing I want to see but your face
Couldn't find you any place upon my screen
Bought a satellite (repeat)
You can't feel the heat until you hold your hand over the flame
You have to cross the line just to remember where it lays
You won't know your worth now, son, until you take a hit
And you won't find the beat until you lose yourself in it
That's why we won't back down, we won't run and hide
Yeah 'cause these are the things that we can't deny
I'm passing over you like a satellite
So catch me if I fall
That's why we stick to your game plans and party lives
But at night we're perspiring by candlelight
We are the orphans of the American dreams
Oh, shine your light on me
You can't fill your cup until you empty all it has
You can't understand what lays ahead
If you don't understand the past
You'll never learn to fly now 'til you're standing at the cliff
And you can't truly love until you've given up on it
That's why we won't back down, we won't run and hide
Yeah 'cause these are the things that we can't deny
I'm passing over you like a satellite
So catch me if I fall
That's why we stick to your game plans and party lives
But at night we're perspiring by candlelight
We are the orphans of the American dreams
Oh, shine your light on me
She told me that she never would face the world again
So I offered up my hand
We'll sneak out while they sleep and sail off in the night
We'll come clean and start over the rest of our lives
When we're gone we'll stay gone out of sight, out of mind
It's not too late, we have the rest of our lives
We'll sneak out while they sleep and sail off into the night
We'll come clean and start over, we have the rest of our lives
When we're gone we'll stay gone out of sight, out of mind
It's not too late, we have the rest of our lives
The rest of our lives
Because we won't back down, we won't run and hide
Yeah 'cause these are the things that we can't deny
I'm passing over you like a satellite
So catch me if I fall
That's why we stick to your game plans and party lives
But at night we're perspiring by candlelight
We are the orphans of the American dreams
Oh, shine your light on me
Because we won't back down, we won't run and hide
Yeah 'cause these are the things that we can't deny
I'm passing over you like a satellite
'Cause these are the things that we can't deny now
Satellite in my eyes
Like a diamond in the sky
How I wonder
Satellite strung from t he moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping Tom for the mother station
Winter's cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasen
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down, all around, hey satellite
Satellite headlines read
Someone's secrets you've seen
Eyes and ears have been
Satellite dish in my yard
Tell me more, tell me more
Who's the king of your Satellite Castle?
Winter's cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasen
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down, all around, hey satellite
Rest high above the clouds no restriction
Television we bounce round the world
And while I spend these hours
Five senses reeling
I laugh about the weatherman's satellite eyes
Satellite in my eyes
Like a diamond in the sky
How I wonder
Satellite strung from the moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping Tom for the mother station
Winter's cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasen
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down, all around, hey satellite
Rest high above the clouds no restriction
Television we bounce round the world
And while I spend these hours
Five senses reeling
I see you standing there
And you are unaware
you're shining so bright
you keep on telling me
you don't know what I see
I see your light
You need to know
Who you are - to me
You are a satellite
You're shooting through the sky
You leave the world behind
You are a satellite
You're with the stars at night
I love to see you fly
You're brighter than the moon
And all the planets too
But you don't believe
Cause you've seen the Milky Way
You don't know how I could say
That you're more beautiful to me
Leave all your worries below
Feat Jorge Moreno
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
The world divides from the bitter sweetness love provides
I will redefine my place within this union
If the word is a lie and the better me can't show it's side
I will try to find my way to higher ground
Ah oh there's a million stories
And a million ways to get there from here
Baby I'm gonna put your skin on mine, be inside you all my life
And if you let your heart open up your mind
There's a whole new world on the other side
I'm gonna be your satellite n I'll hang over your world at night
And I can hear you sleep beneath the candle light
I can see your dreams like they were mine
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
Way oh way oh
When I, I hear you scream I hear you cry
It's makes me realise that I am only human
The world relies on the balance between love and pride
And I'll abandon all my pride and bring you love
Ah oh oh oh
There's a million reasons
And a million ways to get to your heart
Baby I'm gonna make you step outside the corners of your world
And find that if you let your heart open up your mind
There's a whole new world on the other side
I'm gonna be your satellite n I'll hang over your world at night
And I can hear you sleep beneath the candle light
I can see your dreams like they were mine
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
Way oh way oh
Baby I'm gonna put your skin on mine be inside you all my life
And if you let your heart open up your mind
There's a whole new world on the other side
I'm gonna be your satellite n I'll hang over your world at night
And I can hear you sleep beneath the candle light
I can see your dreams like there were mine
Oh way oh
Oh way oh
Oh way oh

Open to falling in love again
I can’t say that I ever fell out
I feel so far from you in this distant land
All that’s fixed keeps us connected
Send my love through a satellite
Cause I, wanna feel like you’re here tonight
When your love is a blinding light
I don’t know why I closed my eyes
To the one thing I can’t deny
I held you - I kissed you on the Calvert Bridge
Your tears dismissed me to the red light train
You were alight and I wouldn't look away
You said I was sky and caught me anyway
How could I ever know you burn all that you hold
Now sing to the walls
I've cared more
I want to go
I want to stay
I want your name and I want nothing that you are
Not even when you're moving me (and you're moving me)
I want to talk
i want to sleep
Want to get up and wash the rest of you away
You never had me
Satellite
Maybe today I'll not wear you anymore
I'll fold you away, lay you down where you belong
Maybe you'll waken in time to break open a smile
Wied and wild as the Humber
Satellite
Are you dancing tonight
Are you burning as bright
As the she-boy outside the
it's no shame that
love's a game that
i can only play with you
what i'm saying
is i've been saving
my love for you
i've seen the light, i'm
satisfied that
the brightest star is you
satellite, i'm
holding tight
beaming back to you
days turn into
nights turn into
days turn into today
don't think i'm out playing
cause i'm inside waiting
for you
i've felt the light, i'm
satisfied that
the highest star is you
satellite, i'm
holding tight
beaming back to you
don't you worry
i believe your story
you were put away
for something you didn't do
what i'm saying
is i'm saving
I went everywhere for you
I even did my hair for you
I bought new underwear, light blue
And I wore ‘em just the other day
Love you, know I’ll fight for you
I left on the porch light for you
Whether you are sweet or cruel
I’m gonna love you either way
Love, oh, love, I gotta tell you how I feel about you
‘Cause I, oh, I can’t go a minute without your love
Like a satellite, I’m in orbit all the way around you
And I would fall out into the night
Can’t go a minute without your love
Love, I got it bad for you
I saved the best I have for you
You sometimes make me sad and blue
Wouldn’t have it any other way
Love, my aim is straight and true
Cupid’s arrow is just for you
I even painted my toe nails for you
I did it just the other day
Love, oh, love, I gotta tell you how I feel about you
‘Cause I, oh, I can’t go a minute without your love
Like a satellite I’m in orbit all the way around you
And I would fall out into the night
Can’t go a minute without your love
Oh, love, I gotta tell you how I feel about you
‘Cause I, oh, I can’t go a minute without your love
Where you go, I’ll follow
You set the pace, we’ll take it fast and slow
I’ll follow in your way,
You got me, you got me
A force more powerful then gravity
It’s physics, there’s no escape
Love, my aim is straight and true
Cupid’s arrow is just for you
I even painted my toe nails for you
I did it just the other day
Love, oh, love, I gotta tell you how I feel about you
‘Cause I, oh, I can’t go a minute without your love
Like a satellite I’m in orbit all the way around you
And I would fall out into the night
Can’t go a minute without your
Love, oh, love, I gotta tell you how I feel about you
‘Cause I, oh, I can’t go a minute without your love
Mr. green i think
i find your face familiar
you reminded me
i know we're very similar
fading out inside
swallow all the shame
and hide the hurt and pain
satellite you're not alone
satellite you're not alone
oh, we lose ourselves so easily
oh, we lose ourselves so easily
blue i know i'm you
your shoulder to the world again
paint it black and hide
photograph the lies
inside you're cracking up
satellite you're not alone
satellite you're not alone
oh, we lose ourselves so easily
She's as free as a blue horizon
Im a slave to this gravity
And every night i hope and pray that she'll come back down to me
I keep my eyes on the stars
I track the heavens above my lonely world
im tracking her trajectory
shes my baby, shes my little satellite
we met at the lunar hilton
on a sea of tranquility
and maybe i was dreamin
but we was shacked up at the honeymoon suite
she was a wonderful girl
it was a heavenly night
but the stars were wrong
i woke up she was gone
like a memory just out of site
My love is like footsteps in the snow (soul), baby
I follow you everywhere you go, baby
The pain inside has come to wake you
But you will never realize
That I inspire the dreams that guide you, baby
You're half a world away
But in my mind I whisper every single word you say
And before you sleep at night
You pray to me, your lucky star, your singing satellite
Your singing satellite
You say a prayer
You say a prayer
You're half a world away
But in my mind I whisper every single word you say
And before you sleep at night
You pray to me, your lucky star, your singing satellite
I follow the winds that bring the cold, baby
I light a fire in your soul, baby
The lightest touch of feathers falling
My love may be invisible
But I inspire the dreams that guide you, baby
You're half a world away
But in my mind I whisper every single word you say
And before you sleep at night
Windows on the world
Show me that it's broken
Ever gaining speed
With too much left unspoken
If I could fly
Through silver sky
I'd leave this place
Too much of the fight
Too much of the tension
Fractured like the light from the sun
A deafening momentum
I take a leave
Into the deep
And search for truth
In outer space
Shooting to the stars
Circling the heavens
Past the moons of Jupiter, and Mars
Fragile as a feather
I set my sights
On distant light
Where I belong
Satellite, Satellite
I'm searching for you
Inner light, inner light
I'm faded
Somewhere in the night
I know you are waiting
Like a guiding light
For my heart that is breaking
I need to find
My soul in kind
And sail to you
Satellite, Satellite
I'm searching for you
Inner light, inner light
Is breaking
I have no life
And it's all that I planned
So tell me why
It's empty
Walls in your eyes
I became who I am
I saw my soul's reflection
Satellite, Satellite
I'm searching for you
Inner light, inner light
Is faded
Satellite, Satellite
I'm searching for you
Inner light, inner light
I'm breaking
Satellite, Satellite
I'm searching for you
Inner light, inner light
Is fading
Satellite, Satellite
I'm searching for you
Inner light, inner light
I'm waiting
Satellite, Satellite
I'm searching for you
Inner light, inner light
I'm fading
Satellite, Satellite
I'm searching for you
Inner light, inner light
I'm breaking
Satellite, Satellite
I'm searching for you
Inner light, inner light
(Instrumental)
Whoa I, I float way above you
way up in the sky Ooh,
where there's nothing at all
Whoa oh ohh
And you, you're looking for something
but you find only nothing, only nothing at all
Whoa oh ohh
I will always fall in circles
I can't see me on the horizon
Pass above you, watch you closely
love you but you don't even know me
And I, I think that I love you
I dream at night of you
or of nothing at all,
Whoa oh ohh
And you, you don't even know me
I don't even exist
I am nothing at all,
Whoa oh ohh
I will always fall in circles
I can't see me on the horizon
Pass above you, watch you closely
Love you, but, you don't even know me
I will be your satellite
I watch over everything that you do
I will keep your thoughts within my heart
And I'll guard them all with my life
Hey Allissa!!!!!!!!
Satellite, satellite, are you stupid?
You shot your pictures through the air
All the people on the Earth, they shot through it
In a hope they'd disappear
Satellite, satellite, we weren't ready
To prove that time was never there
All the people on the Earth feel so lonely
Even with proof someone's there
Please, oh let me grab hold of my mind
The images prove non-linear time
One moment I'm me
The next I am miss Audrey Wyde
Please let me go
Please let me deny
Oh please let me go
Oh let me grab hold of my mind
The images prove non-linear time
One moment I'm me
The next I am miss Audrey Wyde
Please let me go
feeling only left him bleeding
for a whole number of reasons
he never discovered
but soon he would be riding his wave
coast to coast
all his life was rosy and pink
fluffy in the middle a constant grin
anyone would think so
but see that body shaking
see that body racing
feel that body baking from inside
the boy's a satellite
he won't be home tonight
and we crown ourselves again
there's been no change since you and I were young
when we burned ourselves again
the spaceship days when you and I were young
when you and I were young, young
coast to coast
the scene was for gene
all his life was mostly blue
and far more dangerous than he ever knew
but I didn't see the need to say so
see that body shaking
see that body racing
same old painful aching bones inside
the boy's a satellite
he won't be home tonight
and we crown ourselves again
there's been no change since you and I were young
when we burned ourselves again
the spaceship days when you and I were young
when you and I were young
when you and I were young
he says he won't bore us anymore
it's the final straw a reason to rejoice
the boy's a satellite
he won't be home tonight, tonight
and we crown ourselves again
there's been no change since you and I were young
when we burned ourselves again
in spaceship days when you and I were young
Baby come over here,
I just gotta tell you somethin', somethin'
There's nothing left to fear,
There's nothing that can hurt you, nothin'
We can take on a bodies of angels,
Away from everyone,
Touch as we circle the world,
You and me, on the run
So put your hands up to the sky,
Yeah put 'em up,
Follow me, if you wanna fly,
I'll show you love,
Put your hands up to the sky, it's not a mile,
When we touch, we get so high
Like a satellite,
I don't wanna come down, I just want your love now,
Like a satellite,
I don't wanna come down,
I just want your love,
Baby hold on tight
Look at the stars above,
We're the only thing that's brighter, brighter,
Tonight you can feel the love,
The way I feel around you, lighter
We can take on the bodies of angels,
Away from everyone,
Touch as we circle the world,
You and me, on the run
So put your hands up to the sky,
Yeah put 'em up,
Follow me, if you wanna fly,
I'll show you love,
Put your hands up to the sky, it's not a mile,
When we touch, we get so high
Like a satellite,
I don't wanna come down, I just want your love now,
Like a satellite,
I don't wanna come down,
I just want your love,
Baby hold on tight
The way I feel around you, lighter
The way I feel around you,
Baby hold on tight
Baby hold on tight
Like a satellite,
I don't wanna come down,
I just want your love now,
Like a satellite,
I don't wanna come down,
I just want your love,
Baby hold on tight,
I don't wanna come down,
I just want your love now,
Satellite,
I don't wanna come down,
I just want your love
and now I'm feeling like a satellite
I'm high up orbiting the earth
things are moving fast they don't feel right
I'll still be nice for what it's worth
I'm up high I can touch the stars
yet I'm underneath the ground
people driving look like matchbox cars
they don't even make a sound
I know you feel bad
I know you feel hurt
I know you want to cry
I know I'm a jerk
Things aren't so bad, even though they're wrong
maybe I was right to just say so long
now I'm feeling like a circus clown
I'm on stage for everyone
I'll make you happy when you feel down
Shining like a work of art
Hanging on a wall of stars
Are you what I think you are?
You're my satellite
You're riding with me tonight
Passenger side, lighting the sky
Always the first star that I find
You're my satellite
Elevator to the moon
Whistling our favorite tune
Trying to get a closer view
You're my satellite
You're riding with me tonight
Passenger side, lighting the sky
Always the first star that I find
You're my satellite
Maybe you will always be
Just a little out of reach
You're my satellite
You're riding with me tonight
Passenger side, lighting the sky
Always the first star that I find
You're my satellite
My soul takes flight, drawn to your light
Satellite
Can't get enough, orbiting your love,
Satellite
You are the center of my universe, universe.
You are the center of my universe, universe.
Your gravity, has captured me.
Satellite
My soul revolves, my will disolves.
Satellite
You are the center of my universe, universe
You are the center of my universe, universe
You pulled me in, you set my spin, you chart my course, around your word,
You are the center of my universe, universe
You are the center of my universe, universe
You are the center of my universe, universe
You are the center of my universe, universe

Sending signals from a distance
Careful not to empty your space
Watching, waiting for you
To shoot another signal my way
And I hope that you would feel the same
And I hope that our worlds collide one day
So I'm watching, waiting
Spinning out of control
And oh,
Floating out here in the cold
So afraid of getting too close
Will you pull me in when I approach?
Let me burn up in your orbit
Can't help what gravity's up to
Never seen anything like you
But oh,
Will you pull me in when I approach
Or let me go and watch me float
Like a satellite (Like a satellite)
Like a satellite (Like a satellite)
Like a satellite (Like a satellite)
Like a satellite (Like a satellite)
Now your holding your position
Forcing me to be the one to move
Stuck here in a vacuum
As a circle from far away
And I hope that you would feel the same
And I hope that our worlds collide one day
So I'm watching, waiting
Spinning out of control
And oh,
Floating out here in the cold
So afraid of getting too close
Will you pull me in when I approach?
Let me burn up in your orbit
Can't help what gravity's up to
Never seen anything like you
But oh,
Will you pull me in when I approach
Or let me go and watch me float
Like a satellite (Like a satellite)
Like a satellite (Like a satellite)
Like a satellite (Like a satellite)
Like a satellite (Like a satellite)
Atmospheres touch
Your heavenly body
Even the stars know you want me
You got me
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And oh,
Floating out here in the cold
So afraid of getting too close
Will you pull me in when I approach?
Let me burn up in your orbit
Can't help what gravity's up to
Never seen anything like you
But oh,
Will you pull me in when I approach
Or let me go and watch me float
Like a satellite (Like a satellite)
I am old and I do not know the ways of you young women.
With your black clothes and your blue nails and your sarcasm.
What do I have to say to you to gain your full respect.
I am old, you've forgotten me but I'm useful yet.
Listen here, look around.
Read my eyes, see the solid ground.
You look lost girl, in your rising havn't you misplaced time.
I can see through, I can see true
I can see through loves crime.
I can see past what does not last,
I am your satellite.
You are cold and you do not share the ways of your rituals.
How to find love, what it's made of now that you're all equals.
What do I have to say to you to entertain your ears.
I am old, you've forgotten me but I'm rich in tears.
Listen here, look around.
Read my eyes, see the solid ground.
You look lost girl, in your rising havn't you misplaced time.
I can see through, I can see true
I can see through loves crime.
I can see past what does not last,
I am your satellite.
I am old and I do not know the keys to your happiness.
How to stay close when distance grows between east and west.
What do I have to offer you to cross this great divide.
I am old, you've forgotten me but I'm still inside.
Listen here, look around.
Read my eyes, see the solid ground.
You look lost girl, in your rising havn't you misplaced time.
I can see through, I can see true
I can see through loves crime.
I can see past what does not last,
I am your satellite.
I can see through, I can see true
I can see through loves crime.
I can see past what does not last,
I’ve got it all figured out
I think I know how to work it out
I hope you hear what I’ve got to say
I’m looking for the satellite
In the sky there’s a guiding light
I hope it gives my love to you
All the things I need to say to you
Oh, but I can’t find my way to you
Worlds apart we drift alone
A thousand miles away from home
There’s a star that keeps on lighting my road
Play to a satellite (2x)
A message goes out through the unknown
To a place I can’t reach on my own
Play to a satellite (2x)
To a satellite ooohoo
I made it through the hardest part
Of being here without you love
I hope you hear what I’ve got to say
Like Galileo with his scope
I found a star of my own
I thought I’d name it after you
All the things I need to say to you
Oh, but I can’t find my way to you
Worlds apart we drift alone
A thousand miles away from home
There’s a star that keeps on lighting my road
Play to a satellite (2x)
A message goes out through the unknown
To a place I can’t reach on my own
Play to a satellite (2x)
To a satellite oooohoo
Wooohoooo
White lightning man
Kill the night
Bring the light for those who need to hide
When your glowing known he stills the cold
In psychic heat begin to fall apart
Commit some social suicide
You can run but never hide away
Kill the night!
Arrogant boy, reduced to tears
Cross-sect the stratosphere
Kill the night!
Concsiousness unconciousness
Does this releive the knotted breast
Bring the night!
Satellite!
Kill the night!
Let's assume you were right
And play the game of charm and strange
And satellite
And when we've all had our fun
Deflate the stars
And put away the sun
And so we can call it a day
Cause I'll never prove that my motives were pure
So let's remove any question of cure
Cause even though you've made it pretty obscure
Baby, it's clear, from here--
You're losing your atmosphere
From here, you're losing it
So let's assume it was true
Cause baby can't lift up a hand to swear to you
And what's the use of defense?
The hangers-on are too far gone for evidence
And that one was lost from the first
Cause I'll never prove that my motives were pure
So let's remove any question of cure
Cause even though you've made it pretty obscure
Baby, it's clear, from here--
You're losing your atmosphere
From here, you're losing it
So have it your way
Whatever makes the best resume
Whatever you can throw in
Wash, rinse and spin til it's
Spun away--okay
But I won't be sticking around
Cause I'll never prove that my motives were pure
So let's remove any question of cure
Cause even though you've made it pretty obscure
Baby, it's clear, from here--
You're losing your atmosphere
Satellite, satellite
Satellite, satellite
She's got a wall full of pinups
And magazine photos
She teases her hair
As she tries on the poses
Just stands at the T.V.
While she's filing her nails
And sighs, "Maybe"
And I am standing in line
With the other stuffed toys
While she's checking her diary
And painting her toes
Is Friday or Saturday night?
Well, who knows?
She says, "Maybe"
And there's space junk inside her head
And she's, she's somewhere out there
Spinning like a
Satellite, satellite
Oh, dizzy, dizzy, darling
When are you coming down?
Satellite, satellite
Well, she's studied the movies
Ordered all the right clothes
Is she modeling Gretta Garbo
Or Maralyn Monroe?
She can waste hours and hours
With her friends on the phone
They say, "Maybe"
Leaves her lipstick and perfume
All over the place
Only sweets in the daytime
Never wears the same dress
She's in ecstasy now
She's says, "Oo, that's the best!"
I say, "Maybe"
And there's space junk inside her head
She's somewhere out there
Spinning like a
Satellite, satellite
Space junk inside her head
She's somewhere out there
Space junk inside her head
She's somewhere out there
Spinnin' like a
Satellite
Oh, dizzy, dizzy, darling
When are you coming down?
Space junk inside her head
She's somewhere out there
Spinning like a
Satellite
Oh, dizzy, dizzy, darling
When are you coming down?
Space junk inside her head
She's somewhere out there
Spinning like a
Satellite, satellite
Oh, dizzy, dizzy, darling
Space junk inside her head
Sometimes the best trip in life
Is when you're falling apart
Sometimes it's hard to tell
I've stood right there on that ledge
Right where you're standing now
I do remember well
And this is how I feel, this is how I feel
This is how I felt that night
CHORUS
Come with me it'll be alright
We'll be free
Like a satellite
'Cause the world is turning dark and cold
We gotta let it go
So much for taking the time
To make it perfect my friends
Why hide behind your doubts
This life is just too damn short
To worry what people think
You gotta shut them out
And this is how I feel, this is how I feel
This is how I felt that night
CHORUS
Moments are bleeding
Taking a lifetime drop by drop
I hope that it's leading
Back to another place
Back to a better place
Now that it's quiet and dark
Let's just reflect on this life
Over a drink or two
There are some memories of hate
Maybe some memories of love
I know a man Worked his life away He's the one who set me free I'm on my knees to pray The kinda' man I hope to be
Satellite, Didn't mean to shoot you down Satellite, You no longer can be found
Hopelessness, have I done too far? Nothing left but nothingness I can see where you are When you fall
Soon a man will kneel to pray
Soon the light will burn our shade
And with the sweet the bitter fades
So my heart and take your place
Cause I will be your force
And I will be your right
And I will watch over you like a satellite
Soon reason will have rhyme
Soon wisdom will imply
And with courage doubt subsides
So take my heart and take my pride
And I will be your side
And I will be your might
And I will watch over you like a satellite
River will flow from scenes unknown
I'll guide you through by the love I'll show
And the stars will wish upon the night
(written by: Bon Jovi)
Are you out there?
Can you hear me?
Do you know my whereabouts?
Do you know what I'm all about?
Through the static you're so close, so far away
Are you listening?
I'm desperate.
Sendin' out an S.O.S.
'Cause I'm lost I must confess
Throw a lifeline
I'm down here drownin'
In the deepest part of me
Chorus:
Satellite
Can you feel me?
Satellite
Come and heal me
Are you watchin' over me tonight?
I need to know you're out there
Satellite
Are your lines open and receiving?
You know I got so much to say
I just don't want to fade away
Keep on talkin' 'cause you're keeping' me alive
Chorus:
Satellite
Can you feel me?
Satellite
Come and heal me
Are you watchin' over me tonight
I need to know y9ou're out there
Satellite
Everybody hurts
Everybody cries
Everybody needs someone
To save them sometimes
Everybody hurts
Everybody cries
Everybody needs someone
To save them sometimes
Chorus:
Satellite
Can you feel me?
Satellite
Come and heal me
Are you watchin' over me tonight
Satellites fading
Around the Earth
We're waiting for the sun to rise
A power through this cloud of mine
Free will for the dead and old
I dream of you in my skin
With you I want to waste some time
Think twice
Tonight we'll realise
Think I need somebody
A real somebody now
Gonna need somebody
A real somebody
Think I need somebody
A real somebody now
Gonna need somebody
Come on, come on
Worked out that I probably made a mistake
For each thing I've done right
Just keeping it even at times
Seems to take every ounce of my might
I might've found gold instead of dust
I might've found someone to hold in trust
I may seem hard in harder times
Even though my colors are fading I stay in the lines
I can't be the sun 'cause I'd burn
As sure as I leave, I will return
The moon is too big and too bright
I can't shine like stars but
I'll be a satellite
I'm ready, I'm ready, I've already torn
All my pieces apart
Be steady, be steady instead of my usual
Fits and starts
My heart has been worn but it ain't broke
It may hiccough and cough black smoke
It may seem old, but it still runs
Yeah my love's got laces that won't come undone
I can't be the sun 'cause I'd burn
As sure as I leave, I will return
The moon is too big and too bright
I can't shine like stars but
I'll be a satellite
Your satellite
Your satellite
Your satellite
Jupiter's too heavy to hold
And Mars is too cold, and Venus too hot
I'd try for Saturn's beautiful rings
I am none of these things
And I'm glad that I'm not
'Cause you'd expect a lot
I can't be the sun 'cause I'd burn
As sure as I leave, I will return
The moon is too big and too bright
I can't shine like stars but
I'll be a satellite
Your satellite
Your satellite
Your satellite
While the hands are pointing up midnight
You’re a question mark coming
After people you watched collide
You can ask what you want to the satellite
‘Cause the names you drop put ice in my veins
And for all you know you’re the only one who finds it
strange
When they call it a lover’s moon
The satellite
‘Cause it acts just like lovers do
The satellite
A burned out world you know
Staying up all night
Rain, rain on a Tuesday.
The clouds are crying 'cause they can't wash me away.
Now you've got me in your pocket,
We fly away above the storm in your space rocket.
You're my sun and I'm your satellite.
Have me in your gravity and holding me so tight.
You're my sun and I'm your satellite.
And now I know how it feels
To get it right.
Naked in the afternoon.
Bellies soaked in sweat and evening comes too soon.
I wrap my world around your body,
And it feels so good not to have to say I'm sorry.
You're my sun and I'm your satellite.
Have me in your gravity and holding me so tight.
Well you're my sun and I'm your satellite.
Now I know how it feels.
And I'll keep coming right back to you now,
I'll keep coming right back to you now, yes I will.
And I'll keep coming right back to you now,
But will you keep standing still?
You're my sun and I'm your satellite.
Have me in your gravity and holding me so tight.
You're my sun and I'm your satellite.
Now I know how it feels
shine from above you satellite
follow your lead follow your light
libertine blue and angel white
free to release my dark tonight
oh, i defy you
let your light shine on me tonight
do, do what you know
know to be right
wondrous satellite
feed me with all the hope you find
lovingly laid but cruel, unkind
whisper to me with words so blue
feed mem your drug to see me through
oh, i defy you
let your light shine on me tonight
do, do what you know
know to be right
[Mika's cover of Dave Matthews Band's song]
Satellite in my eyes
Like a diamond in the sky
How I wonder.
Satellite strung from the moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping tom for the mother station
Winters cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down all around, hey satellite
Satellite, headlines read
Someones secrets you've seen
Eyes and ears have been
Satellite dish in my yard
Tell me more, tell me more
Who's the king of your satellite castle?
Winters cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down all around, hey satellite
Rest high above the clouds no restrictions
Television we bounce round the world
And while I spend these hours
Five senses reeling,
I laugh about the weathermans satellite eyes.
Satellite in my eyes
Like a diamond in the sky
How I wonder.
Satellite strung from the moon
And the world your balloon
Peeping tom for the mother station
Winters cold spring erases
And the calm away by the storm is chasing
Everything good needs replacing
Look up, look down all around, hey satellite
Rest high above the clouds no restrictions
Television you bounce from the world
And while I spend these hours
Five senses reeling
I laugh about this world in my satellite eyes.
Yesterday an audience of one
No distortion or imperfect harmony
But today I stand, staring at the sun
Ever blinded by celestial naivety
A message sent, and no reply
Did you receive the last transmission Loud and clear?
I'm standing by
Just waiting for a sign beyond this atmosphere
Communicate conditions
Occupy this common frequency
And save me from uncertainty
I can feel your absence, cold like steel
Twisting gently from a distant place
As the stages fall away, reveal
Every question, every disappointed face
A signal flare into the sky
And it was bright enough for anyone to see
How did it die
Without a hope, without a possibility?
My satellite in silence
Orbiting where no one can relate
Is this the disconnection date?
Waiting for the distant star to fall
No telescope, no ship to fly
And I have nothing left but virtuality
The naked eye
Can never justify with objectivity
Reception interrupted
Images dissolve upon the screen
What does it mean?
Detection fading with pure ambiguity
Don't dignify
Midnight, bright light, shining from the sky
Circulating round the earth, trying to catch your eye
Lowdown, showdown, trying to break away
Stay on course, feel the force, careful what you say
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah can't you feel that it's real?
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah set your sights on the satellite
Me and you, rendezvous, we've got to take the chance
I'm paralyzed, I'm hypnotized, I'm in some kinda trance
Hazy, crazy, this thing's lost control
It's got the power, it's got the strength to steal away your soul
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah can't you feel that it's real?
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah set your sights on the satellite
It's burning up the sky
It's burning up the sky
Yes it's burning, yes it's burning
Can't you see that it's burning
Can't you see that it's burning
It's burning up the sky
Can't you see that it's burning
Midnight, bright light, shining from the sky
Circulating round the earth, trying to catch your eye
Lowdown, showdown, trying to break away
Stay on course feel the force, careful what you say
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah can't you feel that it's real?
words and Music by Arlo Guthrie
I'd like to tell you a story
For just a minute or two
And if you don't want to hear it
Just be quiet if some others do
I'd like to get me a satellite
Way up over the world
And say hello everybody and you too girl
This is me your friend A.G.
Speaking to you from above
Here in the land of America
Sending everybody love
I'd like to tell the whole world
In every foreign land
Today looks like a day for holding hands
Today ain't nothing special
It's just an average day
But we could get together
And watch the children play
Tomorrow will be soon enough
To return to blood and guns
Let's just take the day off and have some fun
Today we tell the hungry
That food is on the way
Today we tell the sick ones
That soon you'll be okay
Today we tell the prisoners
That soon you will be free
Don't no one take this microphone from me
And while I'm up here honey
I got a message for you
I know I've got just a little while
So let me end it through
The whole world's dancing 'round and 'round
Like a universe of fools
And ain't it wonderful to see
A day that breaks the rules
Like a day that's made for me and you
Oh ain't it wonderful to see
A day that breaks the rules
Well you come on like a comet, ideas in your head
Starving for affection, waiting to be fed
Crazy like a full moon, eyes open wide
Taking in everything you need to stay alive
Who leads who, who knows where
If you leave me now will I see you again
I'm telling you love bites
Like a satellite
Going round and round
It's something, something you can't fight
Oh in the daylight
And even in the dark night
I want you to surround me
Surround me like a satellite
Oh you move like a shadow of your own design
Do you want to trap me in between the lines
I don't walk on water if you think I can
If you want a miracle call up a Superman
Are we there
Is this love
Is this a space race
Hush little baby don't cry like that
God's gonna buy you a Cadillac
He's chosen you to do his will
You can spread the word in your coupe de ville
So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all your sins
And if you still can't see the light
God's gonna buy you a satellite
Look to the heavens and see it shine
Heals the sick and leads the blind
Tune it in and hear it say
It's countin' down to judgment day
So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all your sins
And if you still can't see the light
God's gonna buy you a satellite
Hey satellite man your time has come
Your word received by everyone
And should you fall, well that's ok
You love the ones that you betray
So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all your sins
And when at last you see the light
God's gonna buy you a satellite
Watch out for bad reception
'cause the night has a thousand eyes
Connected to your television
lookin' at you!
Sky high flyin' in circles
keepin' an eye on the world
Watching over civilization
lookin' at you!
We got communication.5.4.3.2.1
Satellite
At the main nerve centre in Houston
your name lights up on a screen
Flashin' up a digital read-out
tellin' on you!
It's a no-win situation
they got a fix on you
It's a silicone revolution
turnin' on you!
We got communication.5.4.3.2.1
Rolling back towards the continent
instrumental forces die
save excitement for line behavior
signal shifting to enter flight
my back is burning
in the heat of the atmosphere
my engine roars
and the throttle cries
I'm not pulling on my navigation
bringing me down out of the sky
I've seen the face
It seems they've always been here
ten thousand years tonight
copy Houston, request location
signal over...Satellite
The madness creeping
with system failure
the image scatters
and the comlink fades
the red planet below me hungry
the red planet below me waits
(bridge)
Breathe
With the windshields
And car wheels
And chemicals
Uncomfortable and cold
There'll be time for the sorry
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
These are the best intentions
Of suburban Legends
{Dallase, let me know
If you're there, you need to say so
If the road's on the rise
Dallase will be the saddest satellite}
Bleed
Tears of red, blue and green
That kind of fall
Is complicated
Angels of California
More than enough to warn you, warn you
Dallase, let me know
If you're there, you need to say so
If the road's on the rise,
Dallase will be the saddest satellite
Say so,
If the road
Will be your breath
Tonight
Dallase, let me know
If you're there, you need to say so
If the road's on the rise,
Dallase will be the saddest satellite
Wheels are weapons
Feed the fuel lines
Streets are breathing
She looked like she learned to dance from a
series of still pictures
She's madly excited now, she throws her hands
up like a tulip
She looks like an illustration of a cocktail party
Where cartoon bubbles burst in the air,
champagne rolls off her tongue
Like a second language
And it should have been her biggest night
The satellite looks down on her as she begins
to cry
All over the world at the very same time people
sharing the same sorrow
As the satellite looks down her darkest hour is
somebody's bright tomorrow
He pulled on a cigarette, in the crook of his
first finger
Felt the static electric charge of her perfect
hour-glass figure
As he undressed her with his eyes her weakness
was his talent
How could she know as she stepped through
the lights, that her dress would become
transparent
And with his face pressed to the screen, he
muttered words he'd never dare to say if she
could see him
All over the world at the very same time
People sharing the same cheap sensation the
thrill of watching somebody watching those
forbidden things we never mention
[Chorus:]
The satellite looks down right now and forever
What it has pulled apart let no man tether his
own body to his dream,
His dream to someone else
Oh no, oh no.
She went back to a pitiful compromise
He'd go back to his family
But for the matter of a thousand miles that
separated them entirely
In the hot unloving spotlight, with secrets
it arouses
Now they both know what it's like inside a
pornographer's trousers
And in a funny way it's anonymous, the satellite
it blesses us and makes these dreams come
true... All over the world
I went everywhere for you
I even did my hair for you
I bought new underwear that's blue
And I wore it just the other day
Love you know I'd fight for you
I left on the porch light for you
Whether you are sweet or cool
I'm gonna love you either way...
Love, Oh, Love
I gotta tell you how I feel about you
Cause I, Oh, I
Can't go a minute without your love
Like a satellite I'm in orbit all the way around you
And I would fall out into the night
Can't go a minute without your love
Love I got it bad for you
I saved the best I have for you
You sometimes make me sad and blue
Wouldn't have it any other way
Love my aim is straight and true
Cupid's arrow is just for you
I even painted my toenails for you
I did it just the other day...
Love, Oh, Love
I gotta tell you how I feel about you
Cause I, Oh, I
Can't go a minute without your love
Like a satellite I'm in orbit all the way around you
And I would fall out into the night
Can't go a minute without your love
Love oh love
I gotta tell you how I feel about you
Cause I, oh, I
Can't go a minute without your love
Where you go, I follow
You set the pace we take it fast or slow
I follow in your wake
Oh oh oh
You got me, you got me
A force more powerful than gravity
It's physics... there's no escape
Love my aim is straight and true
Cupid's arrow is just for you
I even painted my toenails for you
I did it just the other day
Love, Oh, Love
I gotta tell you how I feel about you
Cause I, Oh, I
Can't go a minute without your love
Like a satellite I'm in orbit all the way around you
And I would fall out into the night
Can't go a minute without your love
Love, Oh, Love
I gotta tell you how I feel about you
Cause I, Oh, I
Can't go a minute without your love
Love Love Love
A veil of sadness surrounds your shine
I lead you to the light - but you don't see me
If you choose a different way your heart would burn
Pretty suffering my agony to set me free
My guardian hand so near by you
To join you I touch your silky skin
But you don't feel my endeavour I can't reach you
I watch you - I need you - feel you
I have a dream all the time
It's possible to touch you
Try to forget
A wish deep inside - when I close my eyes
Try to forget
I see you drowning in your tears
Now I feel your fear
Try to forget
Trust me now it passes away
Sometimes comes the day
And you forget
Let's go, let's go!
Spin are around the world
At the edge of space
Drawn to an energy
Watching as the sun
Lights up your face
You can do anything
So satellite
Satellite
Satellite
Satellite
... Looking down at night
Only light defines the earth
Wait for the energy
From the moment
Dark gives light a turn
We watch you go...
So satellite
Satellite
Satellite
Satellite... Satellite... Satellite
What do you and I have in common
We'll never meet you'll never see me coming...
Down
Coming Down
Coming...
So satellite
Satellite
Satellite
Satellite
What do you and I have in common
We'll never meet you'll never see me coming
[Intro:]
Kevin Gates, I'm everybody sworn favorite.
People tend to feel I'm Micheal Jackson reincarnated.
Satellites, never really made love.
Alright![Chorus:]
Satellites, Satellites.
Never really made love but she gone get it right.
Emotions probably telling her, she could stay the night.
But her friends all call us crazy, they don't give her good advice.
Satellites, Satellites.
Never really made love, Gates.
Never really made love, oh.
Say she never really made love, oh-oh.[Verse 1:]
I been shot through the heart.
Just on the d-low, Lucas Brasi selling kilos.
Gotta shop outta town and got a spot just around the way.
Let's be specific, if I'm the nigga you feeling.
Am I wrong for showing interest in these women surrounding.
I'm a straight dick her down, and go.
No time to lounge with hoes.
On the grind, all the time.
I then been down this road.
Strictly need my C-Notes, can you keep up with my lingo.
Some a say life is a gamble, which means love is a casino.
Everybody just playing to win, think I made it again.
Though many ladies pretend, hoping this ain't what it is.
This business I'm in, may make me taking a beating.
Would you still be my friend, when I'm lonely love.
Get 'em gone, cause ain't no one on the phone, but us.
Someone who strong when it's rough, someone who won't give up.
Ain't no wasting time, hustle every night.
Promise everything is alright![Chorus:]
Satellites, Satellites.
Never really made love but she gone get it right.
Emotions probably telling her, she could stay the night.
But her friends all call us crazy, they don't give her good advice.
Satellites, Satellites.
Never really made love, Gates.
Never really made love, oh.
Say she never really made love, oh-oh.[Verse 2:]
People changing on me, I am so sick of the masquerades.
Grew up poor, had no dishes, ate off paper plates.
I'm taking aim, brought up in this life I know.
Baby you're a rider and I love when you ride it slow.
Motion for me girl, arch it to the ceiling.
Now bend over for me girl.
Pulling on your hair, while I'm gripping on your ass, when I kill it from the back, know you feel it in your back.
Late night screaming, all of the right reasons.
Touching, teasing, blow in the mic please.
Make it bite back, I love when it bite me.
Saying take some out, I know what it might be.
When your body go to shaking, you're raising your right knee.
Bit the pillow with your teeth, I know what it might mean.
I'm a keep going, I know that the light green.
Can't stay still, I'm stroking the right thing.
Climb in the bed, with a dime in the bed.
Don't tell me the spot, I'm a find it instead.
Big fine muthafucka, she a dime with the head.
Just got a text, never mind what it said.
iPhone ringing, I decline with a fret.
Which color should I press, lime or the red.
Decline or accept, next line never read.
Minus the time and the time been the best.
Told her what it was first time that we met,
But she cry and get upset every time that I left.[Chorus:]
Satellites, Satellites.
Never really made love but she gone get it right.
Emotions probably telling her, that she could stay the night.
But her friends all call us crazy, they don't give her good advice.
Satellites, Satellites.
Never really made love, Gates.
Never really made love, oh.

red cosmos pink
they all toasted you blind
i needed another drink
just to look you in the eye
cause i don't want you to go
i don't want you to go
i miss you already
satellite
blue salt water taffy
so don't ride down
to the biggest step
satellite i want you to be happy
if you smile for me we'll pretend like
you never left
i wish id tried to meet you at the airport
i wish that tonight the west was your last resort
but if i can keep the black coat
you can keep the blue clean coat?
i only want you to be happy and i know that i could make you happy
Hush
little baby
don't cry like that
God's gonna buy you a cadillac.
He's chosen you do do his will
you can spread the word in your coupe de ville.
So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all yovr sins.
And if you still can't see the light
God's gonna buy you a satellite.
Look to the heavens and see it shine
heals the sick and leads the blind
Tune it in and hear it say
it's counting down to judgement day.
So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all your sins. . .
Hey satellite man
your time has come
your word received by everyone.
And should you fall
well
that's okay
you love the ones that you betray.
So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all your sins.
And when at last you see the light
God's gonna by you a satellite.
So iumF in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all your sins. . .
And when at last you see the light
God's gonna buy you a satel[ite.
God's gonna buy you a satellite!
Lost her behind the station
Lost her behind the moon
Operator, operator, dial her back
Operator put me through
Ahuuuh, Satellite gave up the ghost too soon
Rising on the thermals
She calling in and out the blue
Ahuuuh, carried her off on a silver spoon
I loved her too long, don't take her too
Oooohhh ohhhhhhh
Oh how he crossed us on that fate your path in my own satellite
What a mess a little time makes to us when time and place collide
Operator, operator, dial her back
Operator, operator, don't take her too.
I loved her too her long, don't love her too
Operator, operator, dial her back
Operator, operator, don't take her too
I love her too her long, don't love her too, don't love her too
Have we disgraced our modern face or just reality?
A nation full of idiots and computer screens.
Dial up connections instead of family,
surrogate mothers a digital reality.
We are breathing in our fumes of our own consumption.
Are we cellular or satellite going global?
A broken feed, an absent source of information.
This broken chord has lost its soul and lost its signal,
and it really feels like were going no where.
Satellite dreams are broadcast on Technicolor screens,
but all I have is a radio tonight.
