Satellites
Amanda Blush Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To make you both invisible
Atypical
Your taste is that she′s beautiful
How am I supposed to define me moving on
One take away from your face on my phone
You are there shining bright
You surround any lie
Satellites
Satellites
And if I close my eyes
You two be in my mind
You surround any lie
Satellites
Satellites
You tell the world
Whenever there's another girl
Is any sweet
She makes you joking half between
How am I supposed to define me moving on
One take away from your face on my phone
You are there shining bright
When I turn off the lights
You surround any lie
Satellites
Satellites
And if I close my eyes
You two be in my mind
You surround any lie
Satellites
Satellites
Breath in
Breath out
You left me with no doubt
I can make it on my own
Other
Pattern
Don′t you make it harder
I can do that on my own
You are there shining bright
When I turn off the lights
You surround any lie
Satellites
Satellites
And if I close my eyes
You two be in my mind
You surround any lie
Satellites

The song Satellites by Amanda Blush is a heartfelt reflection on moving on from a past relationship while still being haunted by memories of the past. The lyrics talk about how it's impossible to make the memories of a past relationship invisible, and how it's difficult to define oneself when trying to move on. The chorus is a repetition of the word "satellites", which are said to surround any lie and make it impossible to forget about the past. The satellites are also depicted as beautiful, shining bright even in the darkest of times.
The first verse talks about how the taste of the ex-girlfriend is beautiful and atypical. The singer reflects on the difficulty of trying to define oneself when all they can think about is what they had with the ex. The second verse talks about how the satellites are able to tell the world about the current girlfriend and how they make the singer remember the past. The bridge suggests that although it may be difficult to move on, the singer can make it alone without letting the past hold them back.
Overall, the lyrics of Satellites convey a sense of longing and the struggle to move on from the past. The image of satellites that surround any lie represents the idea that memories can be beautiful and haunting at the same time.
