Lyrics

Satellites

[Intro:]

Just another day

In another life

On the satellite

Watching the world

Watch people as they

Do what they do to people

[Verse 1:]

So what did we do?

And what can we do?

And how did this happen?

‘cause it's not what I remember

When I left you from the other time

No, it's not what I remember

Should have never opened up your eyes

[Chorus:]

So what did we do?

And what can we do?

And how did this happen?

(hooohhh!) why the hell did I get you high?

I believe in this love

Why the hell did I let you?

Why the hell did I get you?

[Bridge:]

Just another day

On the satellite, time traveling

Watching the corrupt people

As they corrupt other people

[Chorus + Bridge:]

So what did we do?

And what can we do?

And how did this happen?

Ohhh…. why the hell did I get you high?

I believe in this love

Why the hell did I let you?

Why the hell did I get you?

Ohhh…

Hiiiiiiiiiiigghhhhhh!!!!

[Repeat Intro:]

Just another day

In another life

On the satellite

Watching the world

Watch people as they

Do what they do to people…
