Satellite - from "Hesitation Marks" (Halo 28) by NIN
Down here at Olduvai Gorge we're running the new NIN album "Hesitation Marks" through it's paces. It feels like an evolved and polished "Downward Spiral" which is apparently not accidental.
One track, Satellite, jumps out for prescience, insight and (dare we say it?) danceability?
Data trails
Like fingernails
Scratch across the sky
Hard to know
Figure out
Tell the truth from lies
Everywhere
Listening
Every word you say
Think I found
A way around
Yeah I think I found a way
Well, come on
Satellite
I'm watching you
I'm one step ahead
Satellite
I'm part of you
I'm inside your head
Yes we can
Yes we did
Eliminate the spread
Better watch
What you think
What was that you said?
Everywhere
Everything
Every word you say
Think I found
A way around
Yeah I think I found
A way
I know you're up there somewhere
So very high
