[Intro]
Something’s happening
(Underneath)
Something’s changing
(Beyond belief)
The old equations
(Out of line)
Something’s moving
(Out of time)
[Verse 1]
Look at the river
(Changing its course)
Look at the weather
(Gathering force)
Round and round
(The feedback flows)
Where it ends
(Nobody knows)
[Refrain]
Miraculous
(Or dangerous)
For all of us
(Or the oblivious)
An uprising
(Extremely surprising)
Is it magical
(Is it wonderful)
Oh, so hard to explain
(By normal rules)
Stay in your lane
(Of crash with fools)
[Verse 2]
A butterfly flaps
(Somewhere in the blue)
A distant disturbance
(Comes crashing through)
A current is shifting
(A pattern is born)
A storm finds a pathway
(The system is torn)
Teleconnections
(Here and there)
Invisible pathways
(Everywhere)
[Pre-Chorus]
Is it chaos?
(Is it fate?)
Is it random?
(Is it too late?)
Is it nature
(Doing what it does?)
Or are we longing
(For the system that was?)
[Refrain]
Miraculous
(And near ingenious)
For all of us
(Or mere superfluous)
An uprising
(Extremely surprising)
Is it magical
(Is it wonderful)
Oh, so hard to explain
(By normal rules)
Stay in your lane
(Of crash with fools)
[Bridge]
Can’t call it magic
(Just because it’s strange)
Might call it tragic
(When everything’s changed)
[Break]
Up!
(Up!)
Rising!
Down!
(Down!)
Colliding!
Round!
(And round!)
Recombining!
What goes around
(Comes around)
[Instrumental: extended psychedelic guitar solo, pulsing bass, rising synth]
[Final Refrain]
Miraculous
(Or dangerous)
For all of us
(Or the oblivious-less)
An uprising
(Extremely surprising)
Is it magical
(Is it wonderful)
[Outro]
Oh, so hard to explain
(By normal rules)
Stay in your lane
(Of crash with fools)
To late to train…
(By any rules…)
[Silence]
