lyrics
Love, always comes round again
When you thought that your life’s a roller coaster that never ends
See its here again, an old friend that you can’t forget
Like your old worn shoes in the back of the wardrobe that you cant throw out
Its here again……
Life, has that element of surprise
When you thought you were dead and buried it hits you right smack between the eyes
And you never can tell what the future holds for you
It’ll turn you around in a blink of an eye as you wonder how low it can go
It turns around……
And what goes round comes around for you and me
Just like I always dreamt it would be

Absolutely hooked on this album from first listen. How rare is that with prog!??? Excellent songwriting and musicianship. Can’t wait to dive into the rest of the collection. Thomas Lock
The Long Island metal band's third album etches arena-sized hooks into their jagged compositions, deftly balancing experimental and poppy inclinations. Bandcamp Album of the Day May 12, 2022
