Choke Lyrics


Rev high
Bend low and free the dead word
When I stand up and feel the head burst
When I stand out I'll hold it under
When I stand down I won't be down for long
Remember why you're not along
You choke
You take the dive and wonder why
You never elevated
You swallow
Your sky is dry
You're passing time alive
And medicated
A sublime death dream
Time gets to you like a lover
A broad side, full on dread
Gets to the one alone

It grabs you by the bone and swings
You up and all around
You choke
You take the dive and wonder why
You never elevated
You swallow
Your sky is dry
You're passing time alive
And medicated
You've run away from something sure
When you own your fear, feel undead
Feel undead and unlike anyone
Don't let it air out
Some will take it on the chin
I will meditate and know other lifetimes while the sum
Of almost every sorry will always find a way
Home and the way I long to love long and matter... live long in you
It doesn't matter

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The Joy Bus is a postpunk/shoegaze/psychedelic/indie rock band from Austin Tx. The band consists of Preston Maddox(vocals/guitar/sampling), Joshua Vaughn(guitar/bass/keyboards) and Jake McCown(drums, art). The sound is comparable to My Bloody Valentine, Helmet, Drive Like Jehu and At the Drive In. The Joy Bus began in 2006. Jake and Preston were in a band and the drummer quit after joining a prosperity gospel church, so they decided to name the new band The Joy Bus after a church bus from their hometown.
