Satellite Lyrics

Cover art for Satellite lyrics by OceanLab

Heh, fool, this song is another cheaply shrouded song about drugs. "You're half a world away" is probobaly referring to a state of delusion or some other drug induced distance, while "I follow you everywhere you go, baby. The pain as light has come to wake you" refers to addiction, and "I follow the winds..invisible" refers to the "invisible" love of a drug. Cheaply shrouded death.

I guess it depends on your obsession and view of the world. I've always thought this song was about God or some supernatural entity, some part of the arcanea of the world that's beyond human comperehension. 'Before you sleep at night, you pray to me, your lucky star, your singing sattelite' doesn't sound like it's about drugs to me. And nothing about any of Justina/Oceanlab's songs bring to mind any drug images at all. Admittedly, if I ever do try MDMA, I'll be sure to have thousands of watts ready to back up Oceanlab's work. But that's just because it, well, fits. When played with rave power levels, this music can induce ecstacy in me without any drugs at all. It's powerful positive stuff, to me and my mind. Even now, as I listen to it on cheesy laptop speakers, I feel little twinges of happiness, a lightening of mood, and a extreme desire to program repeat play.

At times I've thought that our bodies and the bit of us that are actually us are completely seperate, and maybe some process relays messages back and forth between them. Astrophysicists have also assured me that we are all made of materials that fused inside the hearts of stars.. so perhaps there's that approach to it as well.

I don't know. I'd like to hear more guesses as to what this song is about, though.
