Gonna get back to basics
Guess I´ll start it up again
I´m fallin´ from the ceiling
You´re falling from the sky now and then

Maybe you were shot down in pieces
Maybe I slipped in between
But we were gonna be the wildest people they ever hoped to see
Just you and me

So why´d you come home to this sleepless town
It´s a lifetime commitment
Recovering the satellites
All anybody really wants to know is...
when you gonna come down

Your mother recognizes all you´re desperate displays
and she watches as her babies drift violently away
´til they see themselves in telescopes
Do you see yourself in me?
We´re such crazy babies, little monkey
We´re so fucked up, you and me

So why´d you come home to this faithless town
Where we make a lifetime commitment
to recovering the satellites
and all anybody really wants to know is...
when are you gonna come down

She sees shooting stars and comet tails
She´s got heaven in her eyes
She says I don´t need to be an angel
But I´m nothing if I´m not this high

But we only stay in orbit
For a moment of time
And then you´re everybody´s satellite
I wish that you were mine
