AULHOME The 
Base What 
I draw today will be recognized as shape 
I spoke to the base, and the base says we wait 
So I smoke an old cigar while the giant sun fades 
I spoke to the base and the base says we wait 
The base says we’re safe 
Now and then 
I can see the truth above the lies 
Now and then 
I feel you’re truly anesthetized that’s why… 
When I walk today it’s in silence and in rain 
Can a man turn the page while he’s trying to amaze (It ain’t nothin) 
So I hold my arms apart; 
I don’t deny you anything 
I spoke to the base. 
And the base says we’re 
Flynn. The base says we win 
Now and then 
I can see the truth above the lies 
Now and then oh 
I feel those beauties this life belies 
They’re like street lights they tunnel on and on 
Into these deep nights where the heights of alarm are so steep 
So steep I count the falling the sounds 
None of these voices turn me around 
Above these steeps 
I can fly 
As lightning cycles over a pious night 
I count the falling sounds 
And I will not be staying long 
Now and then 
I can see the truth above the lies 
Now and then 
I can see those beauties that shun my eyes. 
That’s right
