sirens
Satellite Stories Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I became so down, so down by the road
I called your house and heard your dial tone

They come as they go
They come as they go
They come as they go
We shake, we shake
They come as they go
They come as they go
They come as they go
We shake, we shake

You wake me up,
By telling facts while you put your shoes on
You wake me up,
By telling information that is useless at this point

If we could fix everything
One more kiss without smiling
If we could fix everything
I became so down, so down by the road
I called your house and heard your dial tone

They come as they go
They come as they go
They come as they go
We shake, we shake

They come as they go
They come as they go
They come as they go
We shake, we shake

You wake me up,
By telling facts while you put your shoes on
You wake me up,
By telling information that is useless at this point

If we could fix everything
One more kiss without smiling
If we could fix everything

I call them sirens
I call them sirens
It's simple science
I call them sirens

I became so down, so down by the sea
I saw you sailing, smiling with a thief

They come as they go
They come as they go
They come as they go
We shake, we shake

They come as they go
They come as they go
They come as they go
We shake, we shake

You wake me up,
By telling facts while you put your shoes on
You wake me up,
By telling information that is useless at this point

If we could fix everything
One more kiss without smiling
If we could fix everything

I call them sirens
I call them sirens
It's simple science
I call them sirens

Sirens, silence, sirens, silence
Sirens, silence, sirens, silence
Sirens, silence, sirens, silence
Sirens, silence, sirens, silence
Sirens, silence, sirens, silence
Sirens, silence, sirens, silence





Sirens, silence until time ends

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in the song “Sirens” by Satellite Stories speaks about feeling down and feeling alone while trying to connect with someone they care about. The opening line in the song “I became so down, so down by the road, I called your house and heard your dial tone” immediately sets the tone of the singer’s mood. It feels as though they are in a state of despair and uncertainty, and they are reaching out for someone to connect with. The repetition of the phrase “they come as they go, we shake, we shake” throughout the song emphasizes the idea that people and situations are constantly changing, and it can be difficult to maintain stability or certainty in life.


The chorus of the song “If we could fix everything, one more kiss without smiling” highlights the desire to fix past mistakes and to hold onto the happy moments that may be slipping away. It shows a sense of regret and longing for things to be different. The title of the song, “Sirens,” and its repetition throughout, seem to be referencing the idea of temptation and distraction. The sirens in Greek mythology were known to lure sailors with their enchanting voices, leading them to their death. In this song, the sirens may represent anything that can distract and pull us away from what truly matters in life. Overall, the song explores the emotions of nostalgia, sadness, and uncertainty, while also highlighting the importance of maintaining connections with others and avoiding distractions.
