Satellites
Crown the Empire Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Am I too desperate, too caught up in all the noise?
Do I mean nothing, another angry voice?
Did I even have a choice? Did I only make things worse?
Am I just another angry voice?
Then I hear the heart sing...
(Hey-Hey-aohaoh-aohaoh-aohaohhhh) then I hear the heart sing
(Hey-Hey-aohaoh-aohaoh-aohaohhhh)
Do you remember me after the lights go out?
Will you remember me after the sun goes down?
Will you remember me after the lights go out?
Will you remember me after the sun goes down and down and down?!

And when I'm worried then I'll look up to the satellites and hear them call your name
Then I know I can't be the only star in the world that's trying to burn
So look up to the satellites and hear them call your name
They're singing
(Hey-Hey-aohaoh-aohaoh-aohaohhhh)




I know that I'm never alone
(Hey-Hey-aohaoh-aohaoh-aohaohhhh)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Satellites by Crown the Empire express feelings of doubt, insecurity, and desperation. The singer questions if their voice matters among the noise and if they have made things worse. They wonder if they will be remembered by others and seek solace in looking up at the satellites and hearing them call out someone's name. The chorus suggests that the singer is not alone in their struggle and that they can find comfort in the fact that they are not the only star burning in the world.


The repetition of the line "am I just another angry voice?" indicates that the singer may feel unheard or disregarded in their efforts to speak out. The second verse further emphasizes this fear of being forgotten when the lights go out and the sun goes down. However, the chorus offers a glimmer of hope as the singer looks up and hears the satellites calling out, reminding them that they are not alone and that their voice does matter.


Overall, Satellites conveys a sense of isolating struggling with self-doubt and the fear of insignificance. However, it also offers a message of solidarity and hope in the midst of this struggle.

Am I the only one questioning that it's pretty sick to seeing Dave play guitar and singing at the same time? It's pretty sick!
