[Verse 1]
Standing in front of the black wall
With lots of names carved in
Trying to make a little bit of sense of it all
Where do I begin?
Most of us shared so much
For never, ever having met
And it's too much to remember
How could I forget?
[Verse 2]
Past is always present
Present is no friend
Afraid of what lies underneath
A scratch below my skin
Taking inventory
At the surplus store
Lines up in the cross hairs
Outside my front door
[Chorus]
Ah, take me down Saigon River
Ah, take me down to the China Sea
Put myself unreservedly in the stars and stripes forever
I got a little cauterized brain and a heart
Shot off at the knees
Standing in front of the black wall
With lots of names carved in
Trying to make a little bit of sense of it all
Where do I begin?
Most of us shared so much
For never, ever having met
And it's too much to remember
How could I forget?
[Verse 2]
Past is always present
Present is no friend
Afraid of what lies underneath
A scratch below my skin
Taking inventory
At the surplus store
Lines up in the cross hairs
Outside my front door
[Chorus]
Ah, take me down Saigon River
Ah, take me down to the China Sea
Put myself unreservedly in the stars and stripes forever
I got a little cauterized brain and a heart
Shot off at the knees
