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 your desperate displays and she watches as her babies drift violently away 'till 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 everybodys satellite i wish that you were mine
so why'd you come home to this angel's town well it's a lifetime's decision recovering the satellites all anybody really knows for sure is... that you're gonna come down
