about
I haven't fixed my recorder yet, but I really wanted to record something, so I did this on my cellphone today. Very raw, sloppy, half-improvised concept that I might revisit once the recorder is fixed. Lyrics are, as the title implies, from Jeremiah 8.

lyrics
Lyrics:
You shall say to them, Thus says the Lord,
When people fall, do they not get up again?
If they go astray, do they not turn back?
Why then has this people turned away into perpetual backsliding?
When I wanted to gather them, says the Lord,
There are no grapes on the vine,
Nor figs on the tree,
Even the leaves are withered.
They have held fast to deceit,
They have refused to return
No one repents of wickedness,
Saying, "What have I done?!"
When I wanted to gather them, says the Lord,
There are no grapes on the vine,
There are no figs on the tree,
Even the leaves are withered.
When I wanted to gather them, says the Lord,
There are no grapes on the vine,
There are no figs on the tree,
Even the leaves are withered.
