Basement - Manchester Version

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 trapdoor and everything

And it's got a little sofa
We sleep down there, though it's colder
And it's a Friday night but the music got shut
So we stay 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, ha

We drink our tea in the basement
We smoke 'til three in the basement
We live our dreams in the basement
We're finally 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, ha

You can sit around
You can sit around
Hey

We live and dry in the basement
We love and cry in the basement
We under mine in the basement
We are gone to die in the basement
It's a little ocean in the basement

Finding that crusty bones by the basement
Smiles on faces with the flag
So wave it around
Because we feel outside of the town

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
