light years from satellite by Tawa Drive

Your satellite call
Echoes through my space
It goes unanswered
The messages replay

I'm not even in your orbit
You know that I've been trying hard to get to you
I'm not trying to ignore it
I wish a rocketship would start and put me through

Untethered in your nightdress
Smells like old cigarettes
Confessing to the bed rest
Is it what you wanted?

It left a crater
And the light filled up my room
The constellations
Did you see them too?

I'm not even in your orbit
You know that I've been trying hard to get to you
I'm not trying to ignore it
I wish a rocketship would start and put me through
I'm not trying to ignore it
I'm not trying to ignore it
I'm not trying to ignore it
But I wish, and I wish, and I wish, and I wish

Your star, it shines so bright
No, I could never be it, I could never be it
Light years from you and I
Oh, something to believe in, something to believe in

And I was a little boy
No, I could never see it, I could never see it
And we would stare up to the void
Oh, won't you start believing?
Something to believe in

You drew a message to everyone
It blew into the sun

No, I'm not even in your orbit
You know that I've been trying hard to get to you
I'm not trying to ignore it
Like you ignore it
