Saigon Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Cover to cover, we're at these lands
Can you remember? No sense of time, no sense of time
Lay underwater, air out these minds
Hopin' for thunder and these desert eyes, these desert eyes
[Chorus]
When facin' the things we turn away from
We're chasin' the way we were in Saigon
Oh, it's picked apart until there's nothing left of us to carry on
Now we're facin' the things we turn away from
[Verse 2]
Pullin' me under, decline and rewind
Board up my windows, tryna revive, tryna revive
Oh, you never know inside those moments
How good it was and how you wasted all this time alone
How long can we hold?
[Chorus]
When facin' the things we turn away from
We're chasin' the way we were in Saigon
Oh, it's picked apart until there's nothing left of us to carry on
Now we're facin' the things we turn away from
[Bridge]
Turn away
Turn away
Turn away
Turn away
[Chorus]
When facin' the things we turn away from (Turn away, turn away)
We're chasin' the way we were in Saigon (Turn away, turn away)
Oh, it's picked apart until there's nothing left of us to carry on
Now we're facin' the things we turn away from
