Phase 3 (of a Never Ending Transformation)

The time is now coming
past the stage to turn away.
Switches on, machines humming,
Phase Three.

Transformations happen every day
underneath the sky.
Illuminating light from the deepest grey,
oh, the sights we shall see.
As I step upon the ocean floor,
I begin to cry, my
tears flow back and wash on the ocean shore, as I
kiss my love goodbye
because the time is now coming,
past the stage to turn away.
Switches on, machines humming,
Phase Three.

I said the time is now coming,
past the stage to turn away.
Switches on, machines humming,
Phase Three.

(??? stay in motion 'til the
echo's last decay.
Past the ??? nation ???
they will up and move away.)

The air is black, I am singing in the dark.
Do you hear me say
tonight we restore what's beneath the floor,
basement, concrete, and clay.
Return, repeat, and start again.
Rewind, and then replay.
Despite acts of complicity we
return with resolve today.

(??? stay in motion 'til the
echo's last decay.
Past the ??? notion ???
they will up and move away.)

(I've been making potions just to
keep the wolves at bay.
Capturing the motion just to
add to the display.)

As I step upon the ocean floor,
I begin to cry. My
tears float back and wash on the ocean floor as I
kiss my love goodbye
because the time is now coming,
past the stage to turn away.
Switches on, machines humming,
Phase Three.

I said the time is now coming,
past the stage to turn away.
Switches on, machines humming,
Phase Three.
