Maple State Say Scientist
So this is not my house and these are not my friends
We're from a different scene but of the same streets
As far as parties go I guess it could be worse
So I just sit outside under the porch light
Watch my breath and frozen words
I pointed at satellites
which orbit right above me
If I could I'd drag them from the sky
Watch their descent light up the night
It's 2am and they're all onto their cheap wine
But I live with a difference
And no desire to leave this step or head inside
So I pointed at satellites
Which orbit right above me
If I could I'd drag them from the sky
Watch their descent light up the night
And you pool out of your houses
Heads thrown back in wonder
And I'd say, "This I have achieved
but I won't ever take it back
no, no, no, no!"
So don't you say
Oh don't you say
Oh don't you say
What I should or shouldn't do
So don't you say
don't you say
don't you say
What I should or shouldn't do
(?)
What you should or shouldn't do
It always seems to feel that life is somewhere else
I missed the boat somewhere and now I pay the cost
My only weapon is I have an option here
Of peeling back this masquerade
and bleeding on their pure white floors
I pointed at satellites
which orbit right above me
If I could I'd drag them from the sky
Watch their descent light up the night
And you pool out of your houses
Heads thrown back in wonder
And I'd say, "This I have achieved
but I won't ever take it back
no, no, no, no!"
