Barest Degree - 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
