Originally released November 29, 2019, this is the song that kicked off The Infancy. The project was built on the idea, and the realization, that not everything has to be done myself. Today, one doesn't need to have a band in order for one's songs to come to life. So I hired professional musicians all across the world to record the parts I couldn't do on a good level: vocals, drums, and bass.

About the song production
There are two versions of the song, the original release from 2019 and a version that was partly re-recorded for the EP release in 2022.
The song features wailing vocals by Indonesian singer Lukman Marjabinie.
The original song features programmed drums by Mikko Matikka, and the bass was played by the songwriter Mikko Latva-Koivisto who also plays the guitar on both versions. The guitar were re-recorded and double-tracked for the EP version.
The drummer on the re-recorded version is Giovanni Cilio from Italy, and the bassist Klym Lysiuk from Ukraine.
Lyrics
When you see it, terrible...
When you see it, you will lose your mind!
And when the black rain comes down
It's already too late to frown
'Cause you had all that time
To see the warning signs
Living is easy
Just put on your TV
Can't you see
That it's not ok
To accept this as fate
And when the black rain comes down
It's already too late to frown
'Cause you had all that time
To see the warning signs
We're living such times
That all our lights come from satellites
Soon, you'll realize
What it's like without any lies
And when the black rain comes down
It's already too late to frown
'Cause you had all that time
To see the warning signs
What does it matter It's going away anyway
And when the black rain comes down
It's already too late to frown
'Cause you had all that time
To see the warning signs
And when the black rain comes down It's already too late to frown
'Cause you had all that time
To see the warning signs
