Satellites
Jason Wade Lyrics

There's satellites drifting in my mind
There are thoughts and ideas in my head that are taking me away from the present moment and place.

Taking me far beyond this town
These thoughts are leading me away from the physical location where I currently am.

Pushing me further out of reach
These thoughts are making it harder for me to connect with others and stay grounded.

Or bringing me all the way around
These thoughts could also be leading me in a circle back to where I started.

There's satellites somewhere in my eyes
There is a part of me that is looking at my past and my future and trying to make sense of it.

Taking photographs of who I was
This part is remembering who I used to be and what I have experienced.

There's a slideshow of who I wanna be
It is also imagining who I would like to be in the future and what I would like to accomplish.

But it feels like lightyears away from me
However, these goals and aspirations feel very far away and difficult to achieve.

It might be that all I need is space
Perhaps, what I need is some time and distance to sort out my thoughts and feelings.

My silence only seems to let you down
But my lack of communication and emotional expression is causing disappointment to others in my life.

Feels like I'm running out of ways
I feel like I am running low on options and solutions to deal with my own emotions and problems.

Of keeping my feet closer to the ground
To stay grounded and connected with reality.

There's satellites moving in my heart
I am also experiencing strong emotions and desires that are pulling me strongly in different directions.

Pulling me close to honesty
These desires are pushing me to be more truthful and authentic about my thoughts and feelings.

I'd walk the world and back again
I am willing to do whatever it takes to understand and meet the needs of those close to me.

If I could find out what she needs from me
I am trying to figure out exactly what my loved ones require from me in order to feel happy and fulfilled.

Might be all I need's a little grace
All I may really require is some forgiveness and understanding from the people around me.

As these words are searching to be found
I am struggling to put these thoughts and emotions into words in order to express myself more effectively.

Feels like I'm running out of ways
Again, I am feeling like I am out of options and struggling to find a path forward.

Of keeping my feet closer to the ground
Of staying realistic, practical, and grounded.
