In the basement of my mind
blues
acoustic guitar
dark americana
voice and wood
Lyrics
In the basement of my mind
Where all my dark thoughts go
There's no sunshine there
Not even moon glow
I thought it couldn't get worse
I should not have thought so
I thought I'd hit rock bottom
But there was knocking from below
I wake up when it's darkest
Before the birds at dawn
Hope is a thing with feathers
But that bird is gone
It sang a song so sweetly
One that I'll never know
I thought I'd hit rock bottom
But there was knocking from below
There are places in the sea
Where light can never reach
There are places in the soul
Where sermons won't be preached
There's a basement in my mind
Where shadows pool and grow
I thought I'd hit rock bottom
But there was knocking from below
