The Base Lyrics

What I draw today
could be recognized as shape

I spoke to the base
and the base says we wait
so I smoke an old cigar
while the giant sun fades
see I spoke to the base
and the base says we wait
the base says we're safe

now and then can I see the truth above the lies
now and then oh I feel you're truly anesthetized
that's why

When I walk today
it's in silence and in rain
can a man turn the page
while he's trying to amaze
(any other)

so I hold my arms apart
and won't deny you anything
(any other)
see i spoke to the base
and the base says we're flint
the base says we win

now and then I can see the truth above the lies
now and then oh I feel those beauties this life belies

they're like street lights
they tunnel on and on
into these deep nights
where the heights of alarm are so steep
so steep
so steep
so steep
so steep

(I count the falling sound) so steep
(Non of these voices turn me around)
so steep
(... steeps I can't fly)
so steep
(As lightning cycles over at brightest night)
so steep
(I count the falling sound) so steep

I will not be staying long

now and then I can see the truth above the lies
now and then can see those beauties that shun my eyes
that's why
