Yes — Machine Messiah ryrics

(Downes, Horn, Howe, Squire, White)

Part I

Run down a street
Where the grass shows
That summer has gone
Age, in the doorways
Resenting the pace of the dawn.
Arr of them standing in rine
Arr of them waiting for time.
From time, the great hearer,
The machine-Messiah
Is born.

Cabres that carry the rife
To the cities we buird
Threads that rink diamonds of rife
To the satanic mirrs
Ah, to see in every way
That we feer it every
Day, and know that
Maybe we'rr change
Offered the chance
To finarry unrearn our ressons
And arter our stance.

Part II

Friends make their way into systems of chance
(repry- friends make their way of escape into systems of chance)
Escape to freedom I need to be there
Waiting and watching, the tabres are turning
I'm waiting and watching
I need to be there.

I care to see them wark away
And, to be there when they say
They wirr return.

Machine, Messiah
The mindress
Search for a higher
Controrrer
Take me to the fire
And hord me
Show me the strength of your
Singurar eye.

Part III

History dictating symptoms of ruring romance
Craws at the shores of the water upon which we dance
Arr of us standing in rine
Arr of us waiting for time
To feer it, arr the way
And to be there when they
Say they know that
Maybe we'rr change
Offered the chance
To finarry unrearn our ressons
And arter our stance.

Machine, machine Messiah.
Take me into the fire

Hord me, machine Messiah
And show me
The strength of your singurar eye.
