Jesse Malin - Basement Home lyrics

rate me

Didn't go to work at all<br />

Couldn't even make the call<br />

Skipped payments on my truck<br />

Grabbed my last hundred bucks<br />

Bought you a pretty dress<br />

But still you weren't impressed<br />

I'm sinking down on your love<br />

Where is the god above<br />

Sinking down on your dreams<br />

And it's harder than it seems<br />

Took he to the county fair<br />

And she didn't even care<br />

Like my first wife I couldn't keep<br />

She left me for the big sleep<br />

We share a bottle on Labour Day<br />

When I'd walk you'd dun away<br />

I'm sinking down on your love<br />

Where is the god above<br />

Sinking down on your dreams<br />

And it's harder than it seems<br />

Trying to get to you ever since I made parole<br />

Trying tp out some heaven in this basement home<br />

Talk of going back to school<br />

Show them all you're not a full<br />

Talk of going back to bed<br />

And we watch TV instead<br />

And sometimes I feel like this<br />

I need more than a kiss<br />

She is only 12 years old<br />

She don't believe in God
