[Verse 1]
Sticky floor
My boots keep slipping
Plastic cups
Like graves we're tripping
You said “one”
We're on drink seven
Phone at 3%
Calling it heaven
[Pre-Chorus]
Somebody’s crying in the bathtub
Somebody’s kissing by the fuse box
You say “trust me
This is our year”
Your eyeliner’s running
But you still cheer (hey!)
[Chorus]
Basement lights are flickering
Heart rate quick
It’s bickering
With my brain
“go home”
But my hands say “pour”
If this place goes up in smoke
At least we laughed until we choked
Basement lights are flickering
I’m staying
Staying for
One more
[Verse 2]
Door’s unhinged
But we keep pressing
Neighbors bang
We call it “blessing”
You lose track
Of whose coat you're in
Find your name
On somebody’s skin
[Pre-Chorus]
Spin the bottle
On a warped board
Truth or dare
Turns to “pick your war”
You say “promise
You won’t forget”
I promise nothing
And light a cigarette (oh)
[Chorus]
Basement lights are flickering
Heart rate quick
It’s bickering
With my brain
“go home”
But my hands say “pour”
If this place goes up in smoke
At least we laughed until we choked
Basement lights are flickering
I’m staying
Staying for
One more
[Bridge]
Air tastes like
Cheap perfume
We’re screaming songs
Out of tune
Your mascara
Prints my sleeve
We look wrecked
And never wanna leave
[Chorus]
Basement lights are flickering
Heart rate quick
It’s bickering
With my brain
“go home”
But my hands say “pour”
If this place goes down in flames
Write our names in all the stains
Basement lights are flickering
I’m staying
Staying for
One more (one more, one more)
