Recovering the Satellites
Gonna get back to basicsGuess I’ll start it up againI’m fallin’ from the ceilingYou’re falling from the sky now and then
Maybe you were shot down in piecesMaybe I slipped in betweenBut we were gonna be the wildest people they ever hoped to seeJust you and me
So why’d you come home to this sleepless townIt’s a lifetime commitmentRecovering the satellitesAll anybody really wants to know is…when you gonna come down
Your mother recognizes all you’re desperate displaysand she watches as her babies drift violently away’til they see themselves in telescopesDo you see yourself in me?We’re such crazy babies, little monkeyWe’re so fucked up, you and me
So why’d you come home to this faithless townWhere we make a lifetime commitmentto recovering the satellitesand all anybody really wants to know is…when are you gonna come down
She sees shooting stars and comet tailsShe’s got heaven in her eyesShe says I don’t need to be an angelBut I’m nothing if I’m not this high
But we only stay in orbitFor a moment of timeAnd then you’re everybody’s satelliteI wish that you were mine
So why’d you come home to this angel’s townWell it’s a lifetime’s decisionRecovering the satellitesand all anybody really knows for sure is…that you’re gonna come down
