Recovering the Satellites

[Verse 1]

Gonna get back to basics

Guess I'll start it up again

I'm falling from the ceiling

You're falling from the sky now and then

[Verse 2]

Maybe you were shot down in pieces

Maybe I slipped in between

But we we're gonna be the wildest, the wildest

The wildest people they ever hoped to see, just you and me

[Chorus]

So why'd you come home to this sleepless town?

It's a lifetime commitment

Recovering the satellites

All anybody really wants to know is

When you're gonna come down

When you gonna come down

[Verse 3]

Your mother recognizes all your desperate displays

And she watches as her babies drift violently away

'Til they see themselves in telescopes

Do you see yourself in me?

We're such crazy babies, little monkey

God, we're so fucked up, you and me

[Chorus]

So why'd you come home to this faithless town?

Where we make a lifetime commitment to recovering the satellites

And all anybody really wants to know is

When are you gonna come down, down, down, down, down

When you gonna come down?

[Verse 4]

She sees shooting stars and comet tails

She's got heaven in her eyes

She says, "I don't, I don't, I don't need to be an angel

But I'm nothing, I'm nothing if I'm not this high"

[Verse 5]

But we only stay in orbit for a moment of time

And then you're everybody's satellite

I wish that you were mine, I wish that you were mine

[Chorus]

So why'd you come home to this angel's town?

It's a lifetime decision

Recovering the satellites

All everybody really knows for sure

Is you're gonna come down

That you're gonna come down
