a soft kiss fondling my lips,
a grain of sand between my fingertips,
the waves barely touch our feet.
all day we fool around and tease
enjoying this very summer breeze,
just as if happily ever after.
oh once give it another shot,
baby what the hell are the odds?
this time we'll start all over again.
we're starin' into the glazing sun,
still hoping to get along.
i promise to make it up to you.
but every time i try to get my shit together
i just fuck up again and stain another feather.
oh oh california,
come take a deep breath
and blow your dreams out
into the warm flow.
inhale the sins around,
fade to the dark flow into the orphaned land.
another wake-up in a strangers bed,
the whiskey's aching in my head.
there's no way breaking my habits.
i just don't know why i attract
shitty situations like that.
baby, please cut me some slack.
broken down on all fours,
i slam my fists on your door.
here i am, reaching rock bottom.
i'm beggin' you to answer my calls,
i'd wait here till the night falls,
i promise to make it up to you.
in circles we move,
they're all instrumental.
you love me for who i am,
not for my potential.
i'm just a child
kept in a grownups body.
please help me out,
out of this custody.
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...

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
