Jonan - Why We Need the Basecamp Lyrics

Oh sometimes life has got its ways
Of tearing us apart breaking our hearts
Yes it may
Sometimes your hero will let you down
Surrounded by monsters
Vorpal sword on the ground (Ooh)
Sometimes the peak is just too steep a climb
We just gotta take our time
That's why we need
We need the basecamp

Oh sometimes love letters, they aren't enough to court the king
Ain't no diamond ring or a rhyming song
To sing
Sometimes we lie to be liked by our liberal friends
Just to better carry out
All of our fascist plans (Ooh)
Sometimes we hurt the ones we love
We learn to make amends
That's why we need
We need the basecamp

Sometimes the longest route is one most memorable
But often enough most regrettable
Too
Sometimes the captain goes up in his flying machine
But often enough
Down with his submarine (Ooh)
Sometimes our efforts do not make the cut
We still gotta try either way
That's why we need
We need the basecamp

Sometimes the decks we build just keep on falling apart
Like a house of cards on a windy
Afternoon
Sometimes the hand we're dealt ain't gonna win us the game
What else can we do
But just play it all the same (Ooh)
Sometimes the week is a little too rough
For us to waste the weekends away
That's why we need
We need the basecamp
That's why we need
We need the basecamp
