Intro Machine
Followed by Dark Melody
Change To Up Tempo Acoustic
1st Verso
Run down the street where the glass shows that summer has gone.
Age in the doorways resenting the pace of the dawn.
All of us standing in line …
All of us waiting for time …
For time, the great healer, the Machine-messiah is born.
2nd Verso
Cables that carry the life to the cities we build.
Threads that link diamonds of life to the satanic mills!
Oh! To see it in every way!
And …
We feel it every day, and know … that
Maybe we’ll change!
Open the chance!
Finally unlock our lessons and alter our stance.
Friends make their way … into systems of chance …
Friends make their way of escape into systems of chance.
Escape to freedom … I need to be there!
Waiting and watching, the tables are turning.
I’m waiting and watching, I need to be there.
I care … to see them walk away!
And …
To be there when they … say
They …
Will …
Re-turn!
Oliver Wakeman Interlude
Chris Squire bass rift
Steve Howe instrumental
Tempo Change to Dark Melody
Change To Solemn Tempo Acoustic
Machine …
Machine-messiah.
The mindless …
Search for a higher.
Comp-troller!
Take me to the fire and hold me!
Show me the strength of your singular … eye!
Repeat Intro Machine
Change to Up Tempo
3rd Verso
History dictating symptoms of ruling romance.
Claws at the shores of the water upon which we dance.
All of us standing in line …
All of us waiting for time!
To feel it all the way …
And, to be there when they … say
They know that!
Maybe we’ll change …
Open the chance!
To finally un-lock our lessons and alter our stance.
Steve Howe Instrumental
Oliver Wakeman short interlude
Return Tempo Change to Dark Melody
Change Back To Solemn Tempo Acoustic
Again Oliver Wakeman short interlude
Machine …
Machine-messiah.
Take me … into the fire.
Oliver Wakeman short interlude final
Hold me …
Machine- messiah!
And, show me …
The strength of your singular … eye.
