[Verse 1: Simonne Jones] Look down and you'll see it like a satellite Wake up and you'll follow every sunrise Don't treat it like a prototype Take a hold, don't throw it away on hindsight [Pre-Chorus: Simonne Jones] You're not yourself, no gravity Is it something that I'm missing? Forgive yourself, get lost in me Is it someone that I’m missing? [Chorus: Simonne Jones] You’re a satellite (satellite, satellite) And you’re looking for attraction But your stars won't let it be (You’re just a child in the dark, oh oh) Always a satellite (satellite, satellite) And if you're running round in circles Take a straight line back to mе (I won't tear you apart, oh oh) [Verse 2] Back down if you put me on a pedеstal High up like a distant garbage angel Don't send me any valentines Get a grip, take me home alone, don't waste time [Pre-Chorus] Forget yourself, get lost in me Is it something that I'm missing? Forgive yourself some vanity Is it someone else you're missing? [Chorus] You’re a satellite (satellite, satellite) And you’re looking for attraction But your stars won't let it be (You’re just a child in the dark, oh oh) Always a satellite (satellite, satellite) And if you're running round in circles Take a straight line back to me (I won't tear you apart, oh oh) [Bridge: Chris Corner] Oh you’re spinning electric down my spine Don’t ever forget that you’re running out of time You live in the past, live for tomorrow You’ve got to release your grip and let it go You are spinning electric down my spine Don’t ever forget that you’re running out of time Oh, you live in the past, live for tomorrow You’ve got to release your grip and let it go [Outro: Simonne Jones] Child in the dark Child in the dark Child in the dark Child in the dark I won’t tear you apart
