Basement

I'm chasin' money
Say, do you love me?
Just tell me now
Just tell me now
You call me lazy
Your sister's crazy
You stress me out
Don't stress me out
Yeah
I'ma put it all aside
Probably gonna stay up late
Get a little borderline
Forget the date
I know you think I'm tryna escape but
I'm tired and lately, I don't feel like talking
No
Wanna get away from all the conversation
Just think about nothin'
Get a little faded
You can hear the TV
You know my location
If you wanna meet me
I'll be in the basement
If you wanna meet me
I'll be in the basement
Shit's always broken
Like my emotions
I let you down
I let you down
Oh, you were hoping
That I wouldn't notice
You cut your hair, but I didn't now
So I'ma run away right now, right now (right now)
Wanna get away from all the conversation
Just think about nothin'
Get a little faded
You can hear the TV
You know my location
If you wanna meet me
I'll be in the basement
If you wanna meet me
I'll be in the basement
If you wanna meet me
I'll be in the basement
I'ma put it all aside
Probably gonna stay up late
Get a little borderline
Forget the date
I know you think I'm tryna escape but
I'm tired and lately, I don't feel like talking
No
Wanna get away from all the conversation
Just think about nothin'
Get a little faded
You can hear the TV
You know my location
If you wanna meet me
I'll be in the basement
If you wanna meet me
I'll be in the basement
If you wanna meet me
I'll be in the basement
