Basement Tapes
I was driving for perfection
Still kilometers away
I can't see from this direction
Too much garbage in the way
Can you guide me to the wasteland
I was due there yesterday
Can you guide me to the wasteland
I was due there yesterday
We're just trying to leave the basement
But we just can't keep it straight
And the crime leaves many traces
When you listen to the tapes
But the time may come
I can't be too concerned anymore
I was trying to correct this
With a scientific train
Of thought what i was thinking
Was forgotten straightaway
Can you guide me to the wasteland
I was due there yesterday
We're just trying to leave the basement
But we just can't keep it straight
And the crime leaves many traces
When you listen to the tapes
But the time may come
I can't be too concerned anymore
