Chinese Satellite Lyrics - Phoebe Bridgers

1 I've been running around in circles

2 Pretending to be myself

3 Why would somebody do this on purpose

4 When they could do something else?

5 Drowning out the morning birds

6 With the same three songs over and over

7 I wish I wrote it, but I didn't, so I learn the words

8 Hum along 'til the feeling's gone forever

9 Took a tour out to see the stars

10 But they weren't out tonight

11 So I wished hard on a Chinese satellite

12 I want to believe

13 Instead I look at the sky, and I feel nothing

14 You know I hate to be alone

15 I want to be wrong

16 You were screamin' at the Evangelicals

17 They were screamin' right back from what I remember

18 When you said, "I will never be your vegetable"

19 Because I think when you're gone, it's forever

20 But you know I'd stand on the corner

21 Embarrassed with a picket sign

22 If it meant I would see you

23 When I die

24 Sometimes when I can't sleep

25 It's just a matter of time before I'm hearing things

26 Swore I could feel you through the walls

27 But that's impossible

28 I want to believe

29 That if I go outside, I'll see a tractor beam

30 Coming to take me to where I'm from

31 I want to go home
