It's the deepest night, street lights are bright
and the rain pours down, you can't sleep you can't hide.
Rattling on your window pane is a wind that laughs one more time.
Here we go again.
And the tears begin, and you cannot swim.
You gave the same old lies about needing some time
To fix your hair - oh, your broken hair.
But when you turned around you were the only one there
and the wind laughs one more time here we go again.
And the tears begin, and you cannot swim.
Are things are getting clear as the clock changes year
and the candle's burning low - not bad as metaphors go.
Do you want to cry in the night, miles away from the lights burning bright
Or will the wind laugh one more time here we go again.
And the tears begin, and you cannot swim.

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
In the wake of buying the Welcome To The Planet I also went for this older "EP" (clocking in on 70 minutes a rather big big EP...) as a final farewell to a very bright bright star that sadly doesn't shine anymore. Carsten Pieper
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
BBT are standard bearers for modern prog, with a sound that evokes the spirit of those legendary 70s bands whilst managing to also be thoroughly contemporary. It's astonishing that over 30 minutes of music of this quality, with such high production values, is being made available for free - and their full albums are also very reasonably priced...
