Satellite
You can't feel the heat until you hold your hand over the flameYou have to cross the line just to remember where it laysYou won't know your worth now, son, until you take a hitAnd you won't find the beat until you lose yourself in it
That's why we won't back downWe won't run and hideYeah cuz these are the things that we can't denyI'm passing over you like a satelliteSo catch me if I fallThat's why we stick to your game plans and party linesBut at night we're conspiring by candlelightWe are the orphans of the Amerikan DreamSo shine your light on me
You can't fill your cup until you empty all it hasYou can't understand what lays aheadIf you don't understand the pastYou'll never learn to fly nowTil you're standing at the cliffAnd you can't truly love until you've given up on it
That's why we won't back downWe won't run and hideYeah cuz these are the things that we can't denyI'm passing over you like a satelliteSo catch me if I fallThat's why we stick to your game plans and party linesBut at night we're conspiring by candlelightWe are the orphans of the Amerikan DreamSo shine your light on me
She told me that she nevercould face the world againSo I offered up a plan:
We'll sneak out while they sleepAnd 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 sleepAnd sail off in the nightWe'll come clean and start over the rest of our livesWhen we're gone, we'll stay goneOut of sight, out of mind.It's not too late,We have the rest of our lives.The rest of our livesThe rest of our lives
Because we won't back downWe won't run and hideYeah cuz these are the things that we can't denyI'm passing over you like a satelliteSo catch me if I fallThat's why we stick to your game plans and party linesBut at night we're conspiring by candlelightWe are the orphans of the Amerikan DreamSo shine your light on me (shine your light on me)
No we won't back downWe won't run and hideYeah cuz these are the things that we can't deny (shine your light on me)I'm passing over you like a satelliteCuz these are the things that we can't deny nowThis is a life that you can't deny us now
