hd hausmann - Old Satellites

Debut album to be released November 6th!

Lyrics:

to talk of old satellites blind and in the swelling sky they fall to earth become in time a landfill of our accolades

with thoughts of every silhouette that fell upon our beaten chests then coldly in the morning left

and i be control

and boldly i belong to whom where all my thoughts alone undo no pause to say not hard to lose

and i be control

at once to slide an ill taught mood between the sheets unconscious strewn the callous of us vulnerable

and i be control

to talk of old satellites blind and in the swelling sky they fall to earth become in time a landfill of our accolades

with thoughts of every silhouette that fell upon our breaking chests then coldly in the morning left and i be control

and the rain fell and here we are floating always backwards now
