The Basement

from Get Right by Court Hoang

/

about

The lead single from the forthcoming album Get Right, "The Basement" is a song about the frustration of seeking connection and being met with silence.

lyrics

Thoughts of intervention
Left me floating in oceans
Foreign to me now
This could go all night
You know
I could go all night

Tales of indiscretion
Leave me with notions
And I can't see you from the shore
"Don't you follow me
You don't
Have to follow me"

It's only in your head
The oceans burning red
I followed you downstairs
I thought you'd open up there

But I was wrong
To call on you
To draw on time spent fighting me
Spent watching you
I won't follow you
But don't you know
Half of me was you

It's only sometimes now
The ocean's empty now
I followed you downstairs
I thought you'd open up

There you go again
And I don't know
What to do with you
What to do

It's nothing real now
But that's nothing new
I could stand in oceans deep
And drown with you
