Is that a satellite
Or is that a shooting star
I think I'd prefer the latter
All because wishes don't come true
Unless they're shooting straight for you
From a thousand miles away
Well if it was I wouldn't have much to say
I need a new guitar
And a car that goes far
So I can drive away
The road moves under fast
But not fast enough to pass the things I can't get past
And that blinking light above
Tells me that I used my wishes up
So wish me luck (yeah)
So tell the world I'm out of town
In search of something to talk about
To set my soul on fire just because
And as my еgo's burning out
I'll go off the bridge and as I'm sinking down
I'll write thе greatest song there ever was (yeah)
And then I'll finally be enough
Subtle sink beneath the bluff
And then I'll watch the stars from underneath the water
Until the satellite comes round again
I'll greet them like a good old friend
As I let the words just slip right through my hands
But oh you'll never know
When someone will pick you up and make you see
That I'm the one strung out on my own apathy
Oh not to blame but me (okay)
So tell the world I'm out of town
In search of something to talk about
To set my soul on fire just because
And as my ego's burning out
I'll go off the bridge and as I'm sinking down
I'll write the greatest song there ever was (yeah)
And then I'll finally be enough
Subtle sink beneath the bluff
And then I'll watch the stars from underneath the water
Until the satellite comes round again
I'll greet them like a good old friend
As I let the words just slip right through my hands
