Satellite Mind

I think this song is personally about cheating in a relationship.

"coming home 'cause i want to hang out with the starlet stare up at the ceiling preview of a screening flashback of a feeling sick sense of a calling heard you fuck through the wall i heard you fuck when i'm bored"

This verse to me, what I get from it is a girl is getting frustrated with her significant other and is acting differently around him. She's suspecting him of cheating whenever they aren't together or she can't attend something with him. Paranoia/Clingy-ness essentially.

"i send vibrations, your direction, from a satellite mind when i'm bored i send vibrations, in your direction, from a satellite mind"

The chorus is essentially explaining guilt(of the guy) in a metaphorical way. She's could be really angry with her boyfriend and really letting her mind unleash her anger on him and it's like she's the reason he feels guilty. She's hoping that the reasons why she's angry are present in his mind and that he does actually feel guilty for the stuff he's done. Once again metaphorically, from her perspective.

"i'm not suicidal i just can't get out of bed i drift into a deep fog lost where i forgot to hold it i can feel you most when i'm alone i can feel your ghost when i'm alone"

I think this part the girl in this relationship is just confused about what she thinks, "I drift into a deep fog lost where I forget to hold it" which I think she means she is forgetting what he did and how angry she is, she forgot to hold her anger. The next two lines she's contemplating forgiving him and telling herself that nothing happend because she still has feelings for him.

"it sounded like mine"

"when your voice became vibrations from the satellite mind"

I think at this point in this little scenario, the guy is thinking about how clingy and paranoid the girl actually is and the girl(them two being in two different places) is realizing this and she starts feeling guilty just like he was and she is realizing that he is essentially doing the same thing back at her and it's the reason she feels guilty.

It's actually 3:30 in the morning, my apologies if that doesn't make any sense.. I actually am really tired and I went to see Metric today(coincedentally) so. Off to bed.
