I am in the basement I am on a green rug I am singing my song yeah! Theres a pulse drumset and a casio keyboard and a genz benz amp yeah! Theres a big shelf with lots of stuff on it like a broken harmonium and upstairs theres a dog he has lots of claws and he likes to go Tap Tap Tap Tap Tap Tap! I see you out on the street We have stop and chat (Oh Yeah!) You say I am fine, Yes! I say I am fine, Yes! Then we go our separate way Its so weird that I feel so sad We could of talked much longer but i'll see again at the party maybe no...maybe yeah! I am so sad when you are gone I don't know what to do with my life But I guess I'm doing it but it doesn't mean That I miss my wife Maybe it just...means that I Shouldn't...go on...with my life yes...it seems theres a price When you have no life

The World 02:54
I thought about the world, and the world felt grey I thought about the world, and I didn't wanna stay I thought about the world, and all the lonely here I thought about the world and how everyone, will disappear I thought about your face, the one I want to erase I thought about your face the one I want to replace I feel so alone, won't you drag me to home I feel so alone, won't you tell me where to go Cause in this world Theres no home Just a bed For sleepin

about

Quite possibly the first recording at Temple Randolph Studios, "The Basement Tape" represents the state of the basement and my well-being around 2009. Much has changed since then, but this document is a prequel to the events that have and will continue to happen in this home.
