Satellite (Major Tom's Oddity)

[Verse 1] Left Earth with protein pills and a name My window's full of frozen flame The stars don’t blink like you used to do They just watch, and never move The plants are gone, the air is thin I still hum your songs in oxygen But the signal’s low and I’m out of fuel This drifting feels a lot like you [Chorus] Ground control, I hear your lies Said the stars would hold me tight But space don’t kiss, it just forgets And I ain’t made for silence yet I’d trade this ship for your perfume I’d crash the moon to come home soon [Verse 2] Bowie on the player, skipping slow Your voice in echo, sweet and low Wish I'd told you not to wait But I thought I'd orbit back someday Now the hull moans like it’s in pain And I forget my last real name Time loops like an old refrain This song's the only thing that stays [Chorus] Ground control, this bed’s too wide Made of stars and severed ties You said I’d find myself out here But I just found regret and fear I’d melt the sun to feel your skin Or fall into Earth just to begin [Bridge] Maybe this is just a dream Maybe I was never seen Maybe love was just a beam That never hit the screen [Final Chorus] Ground control, if this gets through Tell her I still dream in blue That I named the stars after her sighs And I never said goodbye
