Lyrics
Intro
Come on
Turn it up
Let the low end speak
Verse 1
Everybody's got a screen in their hand
Selling little pieces of a promised land
Running in circles on a moving floor
Getting everything, still wanting more
Your digital lover knows the clothes you wear
Knows what you dream and when you're scared
But I saw you dancing where the signal died
For a second there, you came alive
Pre-Chorus
We've been spinning on a borrowed beat
With the whole wide world beneath our feet
Take one step from the satellite
Let your body bring you back tonight
Chorus
Satellite people
Floating out of reach
Talking to the future
But forgetting how to speak
Satellite people
Come down from above
There's no application
That can simulate this love
So move
Let the rhythm rearrange you
Move
Before the system names you
Satellite people
Come back to the ground
Verse 2
They're building new heavens in a shopping mall
You can choose your freedom from a menu wall
Buy a better version of the life you had
Smile for the camera while it drives you mad
But you've got a frequency they cannot own
A little revolution in your collarbone
When the bassline bends and the brass comes through
No machine can manufacture you
Pre-Chorus
We've been living at electric speed
Feeding every artificial need
Take one step from the satellite
Let your body bring you back tonight
Chorus
Satellite people
Floating out of reach
Talking to the future
But forgetting how to speak
Satellite people
Come down from above
There's no application
That can simulate this love
So move
Let the rhythm rearrange you
Move
Before the system names you
Satellite people
Come back to the ground
Breakdown
No subscription
No permission
No prediction knows your soul
No correction
No direction
When the rhythm takes control
Get down
Get down
Let the honest motion show
Get down
Get down
There are places data cannot go
Bridge
Maybe the world keeps turning faster
Maybe we're chasing our disaster
But when you lean into the groove
I remember what a human can do
No algorithm in the sky
Can tell these hips the reason why
So leave that artificial blue
I've got a real-world beat for you
Final Chorus
Satellite people
Floating out of reach
Talking to the future
But forgetting how to speak
Satellite people
Come down from above
There's no application
That can simulate this love
So move
Let the rhythm rearrange you
Move
Before the system names you
Satellite people
Come back to the ground
Outro
Come back
Come back to the ground
Leave the satellite spinning
We're only just beginning
Come back
Come back to the ground
