In architecture, a plinth (from French plinthe, from Latin plinthus, from Greek πλίνθος plinthos, “brick”) is the base or platform upon which a column, pedestal, statue, monument or structure rests.Gottfried Semper's The Four Elements of Architecture (1851) posited that the plinth, the hearth, the roof, and the wall make up all of architectural theory. The plinth usually rests directly on the ground or stylobate. According to Semper, the plinth exists to negotiate between a structure and the ground. Semper's theory has been influential in the development of architecture.
Many houses in flood-prone rural areas of Bangladesh are built on plinths ("homestead plinths").
The word is also used for the base of a cabinet or an audio turntable.
In dam engineering, the "plinth" is the link between the ground and the dam. For the case of arch dams, the term is changed to "pulvino".

I’ve woken up on mornings such as this
And thought exactly the same as I’m thinking now
Every night for a year I’ve slept alone
My cold damp room looks worse than me.
I got a fear of death that creeps on every night
I know I won’t die soon but then again I might
Just like water down the drain I’m wasting away
And oh, doctors can’t help. a ghost of a man, that’s me.
I’m going far
Ah, ah, ah
And oh, water down the drain flows to the sea
The pattern of my life keeps a-hauntin’ me
Like moisture from the ocean fills the sky
Comes on down to the ground as time goes by.
Ah, ah, ah
Please don’t weep for me when I’m gone
Ah, ah, ah
I got a fear of death that creeps on every night
I know I won’t die soon but then again I might
Please don’t weep for me when I’m gone
Ah, ah, ah
A fear of death that creeps on every night
