Miyolophone - Satellite (feat. Bennett Fantasia)

made in collaboration with VoCreatures, thanks for the opportunity! art: soyatu https://x.com/soyacomu vocals: Bennett Fantasia https://vocreatures.com/bennett-fanta... cover materials: [coming soon!] The signal from the dark felt heaven-sent Like space had bent Just to bring me back to you When the prior expedition fell apart Before a real start I never got a proper view So this time I’d be careful We’d move ahead, I’d see the ground But revolving isn’t forward Revolving’s just around (and around…) Too close to take a picture of the surface The orbit makes me nervous A touch'll send me hurtling down to earth Like a satellite that’s losing height, We’ll be wreckage if I stay Maybe I can love you best from far away I held on tight to nights in your arms We’d point out stars, Little pixels on a screen But when I tried to fix the path of our flight It wouldn’t line up right On the display of the machine I know gravity’s not magic It doesn’t think, just pulls you in But it still somehow surprised me When we fell off-course again (and again…) Too close to take a picture of the surface The orbit makes me nervous Will burning up on entry be worth the hurt? Like a satellite that’s losing height, We’ll be wreckage if I stay But it’s always been that way And I know, I know, I know that I deserve it For foolish faith in circuits We can only get so far before we turn So the satellite returns to night And the radio will say Maybe I can love you best from far away Maybe I can love you best from far away…
