about
Lusitania is a gentle bop and the first release from Endrey's upcoming album.
Leaning on the metaphor of the ill-fated ship, Lusitania muses on how the myths of the past can seem to capture our whole lives.
The stunting bassline and chaotic grab of studio and sampled instruments gives the edifice of something that stands proudly but always feels a just a heartbeat away from unravelling.
A vulnerable feature rap from the mercurial Citizen Kay furnishes a playful work that is at times as inaccessible as it is simple - 'This is our own time'.
lyrics
Everybody's lusting for what's left of the Lusitania.
And everyone's trying to make sense of what's left of our own lives.
I've used my hands as fuel, and I've pulled back ashened stumps before.
We're all blind to the one thing that's singing across it all:
This is our own time.
This is our own time.
This is our own time.
This is our own time.
Fall slow like the leaves in the autumn.
If only time could grow, or even blossom.
Forgotten what it feels to know home, alone in my thoughts but I guess it don't show.
I've blown it way past proportion it's hazy - fuzzed out distortion still I keep crawling back to this coffin who could see honesty could cause problems, me? I don't bother. But you could probably use the truth. Trapped with no clue with the thoughts that you brew this is bliss is it views that you miss wishing things wouldn't cue so far to the left or at least take a step to the time before when that you wept over tales of fantasies fail to span the sea trails in the corner of your iris - trapped in the virus.
Everybody's lost over what's left of the Concordia.
And everyone's running out of breath to stand in a line.
I use my hands as fuel - and I pull back ashen stumped of course.
We're all blind to the one thing that's singing across it all.
This is our own time.
This is our own time.
This is our own time.
This is our own time.
This is our own time.
This is our own time.
This is our own time.
