Seven Years in Tibet Lyrics

Lyric discussion by envelope 

Cover art for Seven Years in Tibet lyrics by David Bowie

Off the top of my head, "Looking for Satellites" refers to people looking for other people, "satellites" over head... maybe this is what he's getting at in reference to finding a 'higher meaning".

It is actually Nitzschean in meaning. It means look to the Earth and not the stars for answers.
