Barest Degree Lyrics - Midnight Oil

I am gone, can't waste more time 

I said, not quite joking 

The fire has gone the big trees stand 

The underground is smoking 

Remember nothing you've 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 you've been told... 

The day's 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 you've been told 

It's still all up to me 

And everything you own, is mine 

In the barest degree, in the barest degree
