Lyrics:
Did you feel that?
The feel of a hearbreak, it hurt me real bad
I'm just saying so you know
And I need that
But what hurt the most, is when I
Thought I saw your ghost
But, you're not sitting close enough
You've seen my best, you know I try
As I take most of time to clarify what I say
'Cause I know it hurts you so
Please don't wait for me just go when you're ready
But if you wanna stay, then that's cool
But if you wanna go, that's cool
When I told you
I'd reach out to help you when you don't feel your best
I'm not sure if I should care
But I feel bad
And what hurt the most, is when I
Thought I saw your ghost
But, you're not sitting close enough
You've seen my best, you know I try
As I take most of time to clarify what I say
'Cause I know it hurts you so
Please don't wait for me just go when you're ready
Just go when you're ready
And that's cool
Just go when you're ready
An that's cool
Go when you're ready
Go when you're ready
(Just) go when you're ready

    So, how to start... Well im a brazilian dude so it's kind of hard to find some good juicy laid-back songs like yours. Your lyrics are pure poetry, i use to joke with my gf saying that people like you are the musicians of our generation. Therefore, for god sake, dont stop doing music, i know it's kind of selfish to say that cuz having a band is complicated, but dude you guys are like human patrimony... You guys are gonna explode real soon, believe my words, im showing it to as much people as i can in my country, just know that you have all my appreciation. Jah bless.

    My last grandparent passed away this morning. I had to get away and go for a walk. This was the first song that came on my pandora after I got the call. I just sat there on the curb and cried - didn't think I had any more tears left. Thought I cried them all out last night when I saw him for the last time. WILLIS, thank you. I don't know you guys but this song will forever live in my head when I think of my grandpa. I love you for that. 💚

    this is actually really good. Aesthetically pleasing, a cry for love, and the title Ballad of the Basement. Im gonna go literature mode here or whatever but i think the title is somewhat an idea or representation to making songs in the basement and being an underrated indie band, I might be wrong so don't trust me completely xD. Really hope you guys get more recognition at least :)

    The second I turned this song on, all my problems went away.. kinda far fetched but listen, sometimes we create problems that aren’t even there (we over think). This music is the type of music that tames the “beast” within us. Maybe I’m just over thinking again but who knows. Anyways, it’s my off day today.. it’s raining outside, I’m home with my two dogs drinking some coffee on the couch with this in the background. Maybe I should start a blog? Haha I’ve always wanted to. Much love from me to who ever sees this. Enjoy the rest of your day, and don’t forget to be great :)

It all starts from the “ballad of the basement”, and as time moves forward so does life, people come & go & things change & as you begin to cherish you’re memories, you realize how bitter-sweet they are, sad that you can’t relive it, but happy you did. Creative, touching song.🤧🙏🏻
