Sims - Mad Night lyrics

Child don't let it get you
We got mouths to sift through
We'll fly high one day
But how much time can you take?

Singin' that satellite song
All those lonely nights
Don't they last so long?
Runnin' through the bad days strong
To the last light gone
Singin' that satellite song
All those lonely nights so busy, so blank
Drivin' through the whiteout with nothin'
Left in the tank

She sat alone on the hilltop with a pillbox
Pretendin' to shoot out all the city lights
Starin' at the block tryin' to
Make the chills stop
Just her and her thoughts tryin'
To get it right
Thinkin' 'bout that first time
The first time felt like winter sent shivers
Down her little spine
Never felt a rage so cold
She was only eight years old
Said if she told
October breeze now revealin' it's plan
Soon there'll be snow on the ground
The steel is heavy in her hands
While she's loadin' the rounds
The cars passin' below
If they only knew the half
Or maybe they knew
She ain't the only one trapped
And then it flashback again and
It felt so real
Hard to tell with feelings these days
Might be her last chance
The round waiting to unload

Singin' that satellite song
All those lonely nights
Don't they last so long?
Runnin' through the bad days strong
To the last light gone
Singin' that satellite song
All those lonely nights so busy, so blank
Drivin' through the whiteout with nothin'
Left in the tank

Every moment her family must’ve been stoic
Was a quiet implosion
That aching and numbness and nobody knows it
No one to trust, no where to go then
Nothing is just
Nothing you're holdin' is sacred
Her thoughts adjusted to handle strangers
Everyone's an angler tryin' to
Get they hooks in
If you know what they took then
You would know they got no place in
The book that they read from
Thought of killin' once
Thought of runnin' too
Felt the same chill runnin' through her spine
When she held the 45 had to choose:
Put one between his eyes, or one in her own
If she die would a Phoenix rise?
Or would she feed the flies?
Unhook the safety, turn off the phone
Push the gun to her head
And toss the heater aside
Hope the heat of the night
Don't eat her alive

Singin' that satellite song
All those lonely nights
Don't they last so long?
Runnin' through the bad days strong
To the last light gone
Singin' that satellite song
All those lonely nights so busy, so blank
Drivin' through the whiteout with nothin'
Left in the tank

Hey singin' that satellite song
All those lonely nights
Don't they last so long?
Runnin' through the bad days strong
To the last light gone
Singin' that satellite song
All those lonely nights
Don't they taste like pollution and ache like
A cracked rib with no resolution?
