Satellite
Lyrics:
[English]
I've been painting pictures
Pictures of you and I
Covered in bruises
When did I let it die?
Shouldn't have let you stick those pins and needles through my skin
I can't walk on water
Can you tame this hurricane?
Break my heart tonight with your lies
We could be better on the other side
Don't need another fight you and I
You used to be my satellite satellite
Satellite, satellite
You and I - You and I
You used to be my satellite, satellite
Don't need another fight - You and I
You used to be my satellite, satellite
I can feel you're fading
How could I make you stay?
When did we get so degraded?
Hatred in every way
I'm tired of nightmares haunting
Pictures blurring
Ghosts that leave those blood stains on the wall
I can't walk on water
Can you tame this hurricane?
Break my heart tonight with your lies
We could be better on the other side
Don't need another fight you and I
You used to be my satellite satellite
You and I
You and I - You and I
You used to be my satellite, satellite
Don't need another fight - You and I
You used to be my satellite, satellite
You and I
You and I
You and I
You and I
Will this be that one last time
That I see the stars shine?
Will this be that one last time
That I see your bright eyes?
Gotta find a new satellite
Satellite, satellite
You and I - You and I
You used to be my satellite, satellite
Don't need another fight - You and I
You used to be my satellite, satellite
You and I
You and I
You and I
You and I
...
