Basement Apartment

Sarah Harmer

Well you live out
Where the street ends
In a basement apartment
With one of your friends

And the tap drips all night
Water torture in the sink
The furnace is burnin' but it's still cold
I think

I can smell the bleach
That they use in the hall
But it can't clean the dirt off of me
It's seeping under the door
In across the floor
It's starting to hurt Everytime I breathe
Everytime I try to leave
Everytime I breathe

Now the toaster sticks
And the empties are piled
I haven't been up the stairs
In a while, now

I gotta wash the sheets on my bed
I've gotta watch those things that go unsaid
God I wish we'd leave it at this

Everytime I breathe
Everytime I try to leave
Everytime I breathe

And every evening
You open the door
You come down

There's nothing
Like watching TV
All night
Underground

And no one is watchin me slide
The low street level bareley alive

Now we live out
Where the street ends
In a basement apartment
Just like our friends

We always said that we were different
But you know now that we weren't
Cos there's holes in all the bottles
And my lungs hurt

Everytime I breathe
Everytime I try to leave
Everytime I breathe
