Lyrics
Basement

Let's go down in our basement
It's where we like time wasted
Hide from all the things that we're hating
It's got a trap door and everything
And it's got a little sofa
We sleep down there though it's colder
And it's a Friday night with the music [?]
So we stay down here with the old stuff
Small things make big shadows
Skyscrapers on the walls follow us down
Every mistake we made, we build ourselves a town
In the basement
In the basement
In the basement
Yeah, in the basement
We drink our tea in the basement
We smoke 'til three in the basement
We live our dreams in the basement
[?] In the basement
Small things make big shadows
Skyscrapers on the walls follow us down
Every mistake we made, we build ourselves a town
In the basement
In the basement
In the basement
In the basement
Small things, big shadows
Small things, big shadows
Small things, big shadows
Small things make big shadows
Oh
In the basement
In the basement
Small things make big shadows
