Satellite City Lyrics

Alternative Radio Satellite City

Sitting here alone inside my room
Darker than the shadows on the moon
I don't need wings to fly
I just close my eyes
I'm watching as the world turns around

The walls are cracked, the paper peels like rust
The cobwebs on the ceiling hide the dust
My only company
A satellite TV
I'm watching as the world turns around

Well, I break my back just to pay my rent
Got nothing left, it's all been spent
At six o clock I bolt my door
Lock myself away once more

The world outside's no good for me
That is my philosophy
In Satellite City [x2]

From a broken window I can see
The rain washing the garbage down the street
Newspaper tumbleweeds
Silence so loud
But only 'til the sun goes down
Well, the fighting starts when the clubs kick out
'Cause that's what living here's all about
A blue light flashes and a siren wails
It shakes me from my bed [?]

I check my watch, it's half past two
And I put my money on the boys in blue
In Satellite City [x2]

I check my watch, it's half past two
And I put my money on the boys in blue
In Satellite City [x4]
