Satellite

[Verse 1] You can't feel the heat until you hold your hand over the flame You have to cross the line just to remember where it lays You won't know your worth now, son, until you take a hit And you won't find the beat until you lose yourself in it [Chorus] That's why we won't back down We won't run and hide Yeah, because these are the things that we can't deny I'm passing over you like a satellite So catch me if I fall That's why we stick to your game plans and party lives But at night we're conspiring by candlelight We are the orphans of the American Dream So shine your light on me [Verse 2] You can't fill your cup until you empty all it has You can't understand what lays ahead if you don't understand the past You'll never learn to fly until you're standing at the cliff You can't truly love until you've given up on it [Chorus] That's why we won't back down We won't run and hide Yeah, because these are the things that we can't deny I'm passing over you like a satellite So catch me if I fall That's why we stick to your game plans and party lives But at night we're conspiring by candlelight We are the orphans of the American Dream So shine your light on me [Verse 3] She told me she that she'd never face the world again So I offered up a plan: [Bridge] We'll sneak out while they sleep And sail off in the night We'll come clean and start over The rest of our lives When we're gone, we'll stay gone Out of sight, out of mind It's not too late, we have the rest of our lives We'll sneak out while they sleep And sail off in the night (we have the rest of our lives) We'll come clean and start over The rest of our lives When we're gone, we'll stay gone Out of sight, out of mind (we have the rest of our lives) It's not too late, we have the rest of our lives The rest of our lives [Chorus] Because we won't back down We won't run and hide Yeah, because these are the things that we can't deny I'm passing over you like a satellite So catch me if I fall That's why we stick to your game plans and party lives But at night we're conspiring by candlelight We are the orphans of the American Dream So shine your light on me (shine your light on me) No we won't back down We won't run and hide Yeah, because these are the things that we can't deny (shine your light on me) I'm passing over you like a satellite 'cause these are the things that we can't deny, no This is a life that you can't deny us now
