Satellite

Somewhere, gotta get away I float away, both my feet on the ground Out there, pick up a pen and I fly away to my own paper town And I don't mind, packing a bag or two and leaving all the heartache behind Go, go, go, I'm a satellite swimming circles looking back at what I used to call home Show me a universe, show me something that hurts And though I've never been a hero I hear so much about how to see the world and everything beautiful Nowhere else to go, grabbin for gravity I'd rather let go So I float there, thinkin that sinkin maybe wouldn't be so bad after all And I've sure tried, paid my price till I was staring at the edge of unknown Go, go, go, I see a stranger and call it second nature but I've been drifting in the silence alone Show me a universe, show me something that hurts And though I've never been a hero I hear so much about how to see the world Show me a universe, show me something that hurts And though I've never been a hero I hear so much about how to see the world and everything beautiful I remember every Saturday, wake up with dad and head to my football games I experienced passion at the age of eight when I realized piano was my great escape I almost watched one of my sisters drown in second grade I saved her but they are my saving grace I wouldn't trade them for the Milky Way Fast forward I took a trip on six seconds of fame Then I lost my mind when I moved to LA I'm sorry mom, I swear I'm okay I would never run away for time or space What's my destiny? What is fate? Where's the love and why is there so much hate? Is there a place for me between the pain, am I insane? Show me a universe, show me something that hurts And though I've never been a hero I hear so much about how to see the world Show me a universe, show me something that hurts And though I've never been a hero I hear so much about how to see the world Show me a universe, show me something that hurts And though I've never been a hero I hear so much about how to see the world and everything beautiful
