On the Juke: Volcano Choir

An old love revisited. Repave by Volcano Choir has been playing on repeat. I really enjoy Justin's dedication, in whatever projects he tackles, to poetic lyrics that connect and lead to reflection... plus production that kills. Specifically today, the song "Comrade" has been moving me.

"Comrade"

by Volcano Choir

Like I didn’t know it

Choking on the pulp of it

Semper Fi

You kept me on your long line

Tugging in the whole time

Keep shining on

And that silent head grip

I can’t do it no more

The honey bin

The bunny's in

Is telling you there's a countdown

Oh, damn your eyes

To add that one a long time

Standing in a straight line

Said it'd be a tall climb

Said that we could go back

Said that we could go find

Terra-forming!

Said that we were coke blind

Drinking in dramnesic

Tore out the comrade

That's a comrade, making a comrade offer

That Ticonderoga shit

Made my mind and my heart all split up over

The floor to the jackpot

There's a floor to the jackpot

Where'd you rise?

You don't even lie to me no more

They say you ain't a comrade

Still, I'd know you'd come back

For a folly-ridden Romeo, you break down the fortress now

Standing out in public

Stained with your conscience

I know that you love me

You are just lawless, son

Give it another fortnight

Eye to eye the culprit

Just rid the fucking pulpit

I ain't giving you another full ride

Underneath the combine

Said it didn't bump you right

Habitual falling right?
