The Basics
Just back away
Give me a little room
These emotions betray
Keep clear of me
I need to be enveloped
Find my dignity
This is is isn't me
This is a travesty
This is isn't me
This is is isn't me
No sensibility
In this wake I have become
A man who never sees a thing
It should be me facing none
Learning again the basics
In this rust I built my home
A place to hold my tricks
It should be me all alone
Getting to know the basics
Close the gap fast
Cut to the core
Filter through the trash
Dig on through
Fingers go cold
When a face starts to show
This is is isn't me
This is a malady
This is isn't me
This is is isn't me
No humanity
In this wake I have become
A man who never sees a thing
It should be me facing none
Learning again the basics
In this rust I built my home
A place to hold my tricks
It should be me all alone
Getting to know the basics
In this wake I have become
A man who never sees a thing
It should be me facing none
Learning again the basics
In this rust I built my home
A place to hold my tricks
It should be me all alone
Getting to know the basics
Give me a little room
These emotions betray
Keep clear of me
I need to be enveloped
Find my dignity
This is is isn't me
This is a travesty
This is isn't me
This is is isn't me
No sensibility
In this wake I have become
A man who never sees a thing
It should be me facing none
Learning again the basics
In this rust I built my home
A place to hold my tricks
It should be me all alone
Getting to know the basics
Close the gap fast
Cut to the core
Filter through the trash
Dig on through
Fingers go cold
When a face starts to show
This is is isn't me
This is a malady
This is isn't me
This is is isn't me
No humanity
In this wake I have become
A man who never sees a thing
It should be me facing none
Learning again the basics
In this rust I built my home
A place to hold my tricks
It should be me all alone
Getting to know the basics
In this wake I have become
A man who never sees a thing
It should be me facing none
Learning again the basics
In this rust I built my home
A place to hold my tricks
It should be me all alone
Getting to know the basics
