Satellites

Smokin', drinkin', overthinkin'
Everythin' I said the night before you left
I should have listened closer
To my brother when he said, "Don't let her in your bed"

Maybe I'm unlucky or maybe I'm a fool
To try and be so kind when the world can be so cruel
And now my house is empty, there's nothin' left to take
You broke me into pieces, now there's nothin' left to break

Don't it break your heart when you start to realise
All the stars that you've been wishin' on were all just satellites?

I went out Friday to look for anyone
To throw my arms around to fix their heart
Well, God knows, when I try quick love on cold nights
All I seem to do is wish that they were you

And maybe I was reckless to let you in so deep
I thought you were the future, but the history repeats
I know that you were younger, but that ain't no excuse
For giftin' me a necklace that you turned into a noose

Don't it break your heart when you start to realise
All the stars that you've been wishin' on were all just satellites?

Well, I know they say that love is blind
But honestly no one deserves a dagger from behind, yeah, yeah
And I know they say it comes and goes
So, silly me for stayin' so in love with a ghost

Well, I know it's not in fashion for ones like me to cry
But ever since we parted, I've been strugglin' to fly
I let you meet my mother and hang out with my friends
I never thought you'd turn them all against me in the end

Don't it break your heart when you start to realise
All the stars that you've been wishin' on were all just satellites?
