Deerhunter - Basement Scene (with lyrics)

Off the album Halcyon Digest.

Dream
A little dream
All about the basement scene.
I don't want to wake up no
If you've seen
The light turn gold
Come out tonight
And we'll get stoned
I don't want to get old no

Dream
A little dream
About your friends
And their endings
Now I wanna wake up
I wanna wake up now

It could be the death of me
Knowing that my friends
Will not remember me
I wanna get old

In the bluffs they know my name
In the bluffs they know

"In the bluffs they know my name" gives me shivers

[cowboydanisoutofgas]

this song is like a piece of conceptual art,they channel an ambient 50's era noise with meaningful and nostalgic lyrics

[ohlookitsnora]

this album anywhere is perfection, this album on vinyl is an out of body experience

[Scatterbrain191]

This song is beautiful to me. A warmth in anxiety and restlessness. Being a bit melodramatic, but absorbing every minute of this piece.

[Chacha5678]

halcyon digest = perfection

[Chacha5678]
