Basement

Oversized

From Promise Everything (Deluxe)2017

Written by Andrew Fisher

Produced by Sam Pura

Lyrics

Oversized

Hiding notes in a secret place I know it so Close my eyes and see aeroplanes and so it goes Crossing numbers and counting days for you to see Fingers move and anticipate I skip a beat Hand me your eyes Oversized I can see through My disguise

I'm with you when I'm by myself At least I feel like it's true with a little help And can you tell, heart beats faster when you speak And do you know heaven comes only for a week And then it goes Hand me your eyes Oversized I can see through

My disguise Show me your mind Hypnotize Cover your mood Heavy lies

Basement on Dork

The June 2026 issue of Dork is available now, featuring Bleachers, Towa Bird and Myles Smith

This month's issue is full of self-belief, slow-burn growth, hard-earned honesty and the sort of records that arrive when artists trust their own instincts.

Basement embrace "the wheels falling off" on their new album 'WIRED'

After major label pressure, near-breakups and some long, honest conversations, Ipswich alt-rock favourites Basement are back doing things their way.

Outbreak Fest 2026 has added Joyce Manor, Loathe and more to its Manchester lineup

Lip Critic, Shady Nasty, I Promised The World and Algernon Cadwallader also among new additions.

Basement have dropped ‘The Way I Feel’ ahead of their first album in eight years

It's about standing on the edge of a really important decision.
