The Five Second Saga Lyrics

The sweet taste on your lips
The light touch of your skin
The soft glow in your eyes
Everything seems so familiar
The sweet taste on your lips

The light touch of your skin
The soft glow in your eyes
Everything seems so familiar
The way you speak my name
The way you heal my wounds
The way you hypnotize
Everything seems so familiar

And now we dance

This dance
Has got me spinning
No sound
And the air is spinning
And it's slowly suffocating
My eyes are dilating
My mind now aptly waiting
For the next time this devastating song will play

I will be your knife
If you'll be my suicide
I will be your compass
If you'll be my alibi

Congratulations
You got away with murder
Congratulations
You got away with murder

(hello)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
