"Cogs In Cogs, Pt. 2: Song"
(Kerry Minnear / Derek Shulman / Ray Shulman)

Empty promise broken, the path has not been paved anyway
Cogs in cogs, the machine is being left where it lay
Anger and the rising murmur breaks the old circle
The wheel slowly turns around

All words saying nothing, the air is sour with discontent
No returns have been tasted or are they ever sent?
Slow burning is the fire, rising murmur breaks the old circle
The wheel slowly turns around

Cogs and cogs, wheel turning around
Turning around
Turning around
Slow burning
Empty promises
Cogs and cogs, wheel turning around
Cogs and cogs, wheel turning around
Cogs and cogs, wheel turning around

The circle turns around
The changing voice is coming
Circle turns around (The circle turns around)
The changing voice is coming (The changing voice is coming)
Circle turns around (The circle turns around)
The changing voice is coming (The changing voice is coming)
Circle turns around (The circle turns around)
The changing voice is coming (The changing voice is coming)
Circle turns around (The circle turns around)
The changing voice is coming (The changing voice is coming)
Circle turns around (The circle turns around)
The changing voice is coming (The changing voice is coming)
Circle turns around (The circle turns around)
The changing voice is coming (The changing voice is coming)
Circle turns around (The circle turns around)
The changing-

Slow burning is the fire, rising murmur breaks the old circle
The wheel slowly turns around

Wheel, wheel
Wheel slowly turning
Slow burning
Slow burning
Slowly around
Cogs in cogs in wheels in circles slowly turn around
