"Orbit" by Alpha Cat is a thought-provoking alternative rock track written, arranged, and produced by lead singer Elizabeth McCullough. The song's introspective lyrics explore the idea that the events happening around us are simply metaphors for what is going on inside of us, and that despite our physical separation, we are all connected as a global community through technology. McCullough's haunting vocals are accompanied by a dynamic instrumental arrangement that builds throughout the song, creating a powerful and immersive sonic landscape. With its poignant message and intricate production, "Orbit" is a standout track that showcases Alpha Cat's unique perspective and musical creativity.

LYRICS

ORBIT What I wouldn’t give to be closer than this I fall from dreams to covers that are drenched in tears and sweat

ten light years or a lifetime if we could only see how dark is the space between us not so far now as then

We roll ‘round the same sun reflecting the same moon you’re in my orbit you’re circling my head

why I wouldn’t choose to stand there in your shoes we close our eyes to complications both generous and true

At first I didn’t see you and you there all along I wind my watch the wrong direction and pray we’ll meet again

We roll ‘round the same sun reflecting the same moon you’re in my orbit you’re circling my head

it’s an infinite rotation whatever time you bend can we be in the same place as we are of the same mind as opposites can mend

there’s a curious appeal the shock of something real a hazy picture of promise wasted we’ve tried so to forget

synchronous engagement the physics of attraction something greater separates us and pulls us back again

We roll ‘round the same sun reflecting the same moon you’re in my orbit you’re circling my head
