Satellite Lyrics

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
This is a life that you can't deny us now
