Satellites Lyrics
Satellites, flashing by
It’s a beautiful state we’re in
But how can we love in isolation
Think how happy we can be
When we just try
We’re nothing like we seem
Passionate words are never spoken
You don’t know how I bleed
When I leave your side
In your eyes, love’s alive
We’ve come untied
‘Cause we’re flashing by like satellites
Satellites
Take all the rules away
How can we live if we don’t change
We’re always on display
Let’s run and hide
In our eyes, love’s alive
We’ve come untied
‘Cause we’re flashing by like satellites
Satellites
If we don’t communicate
We’ll exist in our own space
We’ll have all the love we need
While we’re apart I cannot breathe
Satellites, flashing by
Satellites
It’s a beautiful state we’re in
But how can we love in isolation
Think how happy we can be
When we just try
We’re nothing like we seem
Passionate words are never spoken
You don’t know how I bleed
When I leave your side
We’ve come untied
‘Cause we’re flashing by like satellites
Satellites
How can we live if we don’t change
We’re always on display
Let’s run and hide
We’ve come untied
‘Cause we’re flashing by like satellites
Satellites
We’ll exist in our own space
We’ll have all the love we need
While we’re apart I cannot breathe
Satellites

This song is serene, like a ukelele festival on your last night in Hawaii. When I first listened to the song, I didnt pay attention to the words because it just put me in a serene mood. But when you listen to it, the song paints a pretty picture. This song is about two people who like each other, but are scared to show emotion, so they just pass each other..... like satellites. (in orbit) GET IT?
A long-distance relationship.
I think it's about being in a relationship where you are going through the motions without meaning any of it, just "flashing by". It seems she wants it to work, she wants to try but it's about making her other half work for it too. They've become "untied" but it's not how she wants it to be.
I don't know but that's just what I got when I heard it.
I think it's about a relationship that's faltering. Two people truly in love but never admitting that something is wrong nor trying to fix it. Instead of flourishing, they're just existing in this relationship they've built; Just passing each other by.
well . this is what i think....
ok so they used to have a good relationship but now itz goin downhill. Shez sayin that instead of sittin there not trying to fix the relationship we should make an effort to fiz it because everything we need to fix it is right in front of our face...we jus have to try. Shez also sayin that they try to act like they are a good couple and have a solid relationship wheen they both know the truth.
and some of the lyrics are wrong. it says "in our eyes loves a lie...."
and yea diz song could be bout jay-z
