If you break these moth wing feelings
|
Powdery dust on your fingers
|
Well no we're not praying we're kneeling
|
Hard enough just to say you believe them
|
Well how the heck did you think you could beat them
|
At the same time that you're trying to be them
|
Hard enough just to say you don't need it
|
When they threw food up while you were still eating
|
Well, satellite, satellite skin
|
|
Just to know just to say you don't visit
|
When everybody's willing to listen
|
Oh satellite, satellite skin
|
You can say what you want you're forgiven
|
Well happy fucking congratulations
|
Well everyone, everyone wins
|
Just like being my own solar system
|
Doing good things but then totally eclipse them
|
Oh what's the use, oh what the hell
|
|
(Your loss, and we had a cause, had a cause)
|
|
If you bring these moth wing feelings
|
Butterfly knives in the ceiling
|
Well everyone, everyone's willing
|
Detachments gets praised and completed
|
You can say what you want and not mean it
|
Well no one really seems to be waiting
|
If you sweep up this mess I've created
|
Nothing's left to show I existed
|
Except, satellite, satellite skin
|
|
Asking for a question
|
Was it easier to say than was actually done?
|
Do you even believe that
|
Do you even believe
|
That there's a race to be won?
|
|
If you bring these moth wing feelings
|
I have seen it all become satellite skin
|
Opening innocent eyes
|
A knack to note that its not their opinions
|
That get stacked in all those usual avoided spots
|
Just to tell you how I could not have seen
|
Through to the gist of those unhappy
|
Happy accidents
|
