lyrics
I took a step then brace for the fall
(clouded vision)
Another night, they pass in a haze
(spinning, numbing)
Try to speak then wait for the words
(reaching, slurring)
You speak to me, I can’t understand you
(fading, whispering)
Too much confusion
I can’t hear what you say
This room won’t stop turning
I’m here and now I think I’ll stay
Feeding the blood of my willing victim
(thinning, burning)
This is the one to ease the pressure
(comfort, longing)
Another drink to make me stronger
(feeding, nurturing)
You step inside, you answer my call
(twisting, controlling)
So much illusion
I’m moving though lying still
My mind won’t stop drifting
You move in for the kill
Another step and your senses are gone
(stumble backwards)
You feed my head, I feed on your soul
(satisfaction)
To face the day I taste the night
(sanity slipping)
And in the end I’ll get what I want
(bitter victory)
Crawling ‘cross the floor ‘cos I cannot stand
I’m all yours, will you take me away?
Oblivion’s where I finish the night
No more hunger when you turn out the light
And all that you can see is my inebriety
Amusing them all around
Who can’t share our common ground
To render your release I long in anxiety
For your love I seize control
In your arms I fall
Flowing down through my veins
Sterilizing all my pain
A victim by your caress
Truths tonight will I confess…
I had a dream and the dream was I
(nightmare, reality)
No need to fight then brace for the fall
(dark allegiance)
Heat of your touch you feel the burn
(rising mercury)
And in the end you’ll get what you want!
Long nights in my world
I return again to the day
Too much reality
It’s warm here, I think I’ll stay
(clouded vision)
Another night, they pass in a haze
(spinning, numbing)
Try to speak then wait for the words
(reaching, slurring)
You speak to me, I can’t understand you
(fading, whispering)
Too much confusion
I can’t hear what you say
This room won’t stop turning
I’m here and now I think I’ll stay
Feeding the blood of my willing victim
(thinning, burning)
This is the one to ease the pressure
(comfort, longing)
Another drink to make me stronger
(feeding, nurturing)
You step inside, you answer my call
(twisting, controlling)
So much illusion
I’m moving though lying still
My mind won’t stop drifting
You move in for the kill
Another step and your senses are gone
(stumble backwards)
You feed my head, I feed on your soul
(satisfaction)
To face the day I taste the night
(sanity slipping)
And in the end I’ll get what I want

Crawling ‘cross the floor ‘cos I cannot stand

Oblivion’s where I finish the night
No more hunger when you turn out the light

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...
