"Satellite" lyrics

"Satellite"

Is that a satellite or is that a shooting star?
I think I'd prefer the latter

All because wishes don't come true
Unless they're shooting straight for you
From a thousand miles away
Well, if it was, I wouldn't have much to say

I need a new guitar and a car that goes far
So I can drive away

The road moves under fast
But not fast enough to pass the things I can't get past
And that blinking light above
Tells me that I used my wishes up
So wish me luck (yeah)

So tell the world I'm out of town
In search of something to talk about
To set my soul on fire just because
And as my ego's burning out
I'll go off the bridge and as I'm sinking down
I'll write the greatest song there ever was (yeah)
And then I'll finally be enough
A subtle sink beneath the bluff
And then I'll watch the stars from underneath the water
Until the satellite comes 'round again
I'll greet them like a good old friend
As I let the words just slip right through my hands (yeah)

But oh, you'll never know
When someone will pick you up and make you see
That I'm the one strung out on my own apathy
Oh, none to blame but me (okay, alright)

So tell the world I'm out of town
In search of something to talk about
To set my soul on fire just because
And as my ego's burning out
I'll go off the bridge and as I'm sinking down
I'll write the greatest song there ever was (yeah)
Then I'll finally be enough
A subtle sink beneath the bluff
And then I'll watch the stars from underneath the water
Until the satellite comes 'round again
I'll greet them like a good old friend
As I let the words just slip right through my hands
