MindReading
Satellites Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You got to face what confronts you
Time will change whatever
Time to make things better
Time to find some new space
Time to age this young face
Time for moving forward now
Throw me in the water I will not go under
I got a side you'll find always survives no matter
Time to make things right, time to end this night
So tell me what you're thinking
I'm not one for mindreading
Don't tell me all your wishes
Cause mine already haunt me
And I can't take yours with me
Cause mine alone weigh too much
You'll only have to repeat them
To someone who believes them
So throw me in the water I will not go under
I got a side you'll find always survives no matter
Time to make things right, time to end this night
Change the black to white
And tell me what you're thinking
Tell me what you're thinking
The song "MindReading" by Satellites is about facing difficulties, making changes, and moving on from the past. The lyrics encourage the listener to face their problems head-on and not to be afraid of what might happen. The line "Come on lift your head I can't see you" suggests that the singer wants the listener to face their problems and to not hide away from them. The next line "You got to face what confronts you" reinforces this idea and encourages the listener to be brave.
The chorus is about survival and persistence. The lyrics "Throw me in the water I will not go under" and "I got a side you'll find always survives no matter" suggest that the singer is determined to overcome any challenges that come their way. The next line "Time to make things right, time to end this night" suggests that the singer is ready to move on from the past and start anew.
The second verse is about communication and dealing with one's emotions. The line "I'm not one for mindreading" suggests that the singer wants the listener to be open and honest with them. The next lines "Don't tell me all your wishes/Cause mine already haunt me" suggest that the singer has their own problems and can't deal with anyone else's right now. The next lines "And I can't take yours with me/Cause mine alone weigh too much" reinforce this idea.

Cause mine alone weigh too much
My own problems are already weighing me down and are difficult enough for me to deal with on my own.
