Sleeping Satellite
Song by Tasmin Archer
Sleeping Satellites caught up in the spiral historiography unawares, and I am waking you up so that you can live your dreams rather than passively melt into the big sleep.
Lyrics
I blame you for the moonlit sky
And the dream that died
With the eagles’ flights
I blame you for the moonlit nights
When I wonder why
Are the seas still dry
Don’t blame this sleeping satellite
Did we fly to the moon too soon?
Did we squander the chance?
In the rush of the race
The reason we chase is lost in romance
And still we try
To justify the waste
For a taste of man’s greatest adventure
I blame you for the moonlit sky
And the dream that died
With the eagles’ flights
I blame you for the moonlit nights
When I wonder why
Are the seas still dry
Don’t blame this sleeping satellite
Have we got what it takes to advance?
Have we peaked too soon?
If the world is so great
Then why does it scream under a blue moon?
We wonder why
If the earth’s sacrificed
For the price of its greatest treasure
I blame you for the moonlit sky
And the dream that died
With the eagles’ flights
I blame you for the moonlit nights
When I wonder why
Are the seas still dry
Don’t blame this sleeping satellite
And when we shoot for the stars
What a giant step
Have we got what it takes
To carry the weight of this concept?
Or pass it by
Like a shot in the dark
Miss the mark with a sense of adventure
I blame you sleeping satellite
I blame you for the moonlit sky
And the dream that died
With the eagles’ flights
I blame you for the moonlit nights
When I wonder why
Are the seas still dry
Don’t blame this sleeping satellite
Don’t blame this sleeping satellite
