Barest Degree — текст песни (midnight oil)

I am gone, cant waste more time

I said, not quite joking

The fire has gone the big trees stand

The underground is smoking



Remember nothing youve been told

Means anything to me

And everything you hold is mine

In the barest degree



I walked up to the park

The lion rock was weeping

I walked on to the grave

The lizard king was sleeping



Remember nothing youve been told...



The days draw long, too long to count

Cushioned by the wasting

Restless age, the rusted temple

A place of my own making



No matter what else youve been told

Its still all up to me

And everything you own, is mine

In the barest degree, in the barest degree
