Saturn
Durow Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Really couldn't take your hardest nights
Thrown from avalanches
Mountain highs
I'll just take the L
Guess I caught one
When I'm on the low
When you're on your phone
I'm going backwards
Had my back turned
It was all love haha
You're always so justified
I'll just let you figure it out
You can take me back to your house
Words I couldn't even pronounce
Like I love you
Like I need you more
Like it's okay
Like you know that it's not my fault
Someday I'ma figure it out
Take you far away from the now
Think I love you
But I need you more
Like it's okay
When we both know it's all my fault
Hiding intentions
Your white pickets fences
Never held
Hide from the present
Find me a heaven
I'm tryna dig my way to hell
Baby it's dark out
And I left my heart out
By the television
At my moms house
Took another L
Guess I caught one
When I'm on the low
When you're on your phone
I think I'm on one
I'm going backwards
Had my back turned
It was all love haha
You're always so justified
I'll just let you figure it out
You can take me back to your house
Words I couldn't even pronounce
Like I love you
Like I need you more
Like it's okay
Like you know that it's not my fault
Someday ima figure it out
Take you far away from the now
Think I love you
But I need you more
Like it's okay
When we both know it's all my fault
I said I'd take the long way
You take me back it's heart break
I'll love you first and always
You
Well you said
I'll just let you figure it out
You can take me back to your house
Words I couldn't even pronounce
Like I love you
Like I need you more
Like it's okay
Like you know that it's not my fault
Someday ima figure it out
Take you far away from the now
Think I love you
But I need you more
Like it's okay
When we both know it's all my fault
