'Basement Full of Stars' - Greeny Original

[Greeny]

Just me and a (real) piano. As stripped back as it gets.

Basement Full of Stars

are you reeling in the lost years
at the doll hospital?
superglued bone china
as the empire falls

it's just fairy lights
strung out in the dark
but now your basement
is full of stars

laughing like an inmate
at the loony-bin ball
going out on a limb here -
I'm tired of it all

it's just fairy lights
strung out in the dark
but now your basement
is full of stars

licking at the window
jack frost and his tongue
keeping us prisoners
and out of the sun

it's just fairy lights
strung out in the dark
but now your basement
is full of stars

That is one beautiful little song, Tim. Being stripped back on production like that fits perfectly with the lugubrious vibe of the lyrics. Love that kind of plaintive delivery in songs such as this. Great stuff.

Tim I knew you were a great lyricist, vocalist, guitarist, and songwriterist (hehe a new word). Now I can add pianist to the list. Well done with this stripped back piano and vocal song!
