about

“Phasing” was originally an idea born through my daydreaming of the ability to pass through solid objects, which drives the musical stop in the middle of the song, with some sound (the strings) making it through the “wall” before the choir comes in. The choir then starts by performing a “peeling” motion, as in the first song, this time from the middle, outward. The lyrics, themselves, talk about change and its role in our lives and the world. It becomes a choral piece that has constant and strange changes in time and harmonies that all come to a satisfying conclusion to illustrate the idea that change is necessary and doesn’t always seem good, but will turn out well in the end. There is an “amen statement” (in my own style), to present the song as a “hymn” of one of my personal philosophies of staying as adaptable as possible.

lyrics

How happy are we to receive new things?
How boring would it be for perpetual Spring?
At one time we were nothing, the next we sprang forth.
Being stuck in tradition slows us down henceforth.
A natural ever-present divine.
Inventors to create new designs;
Sparks diversity in foreign exchange.
There’s no worse way to live than to live without change.
Oh, change is a natural ever-present divine.
It pushes tinkerers to create new designs;
Creates compelling differences in foreign exchange.
And there’s no worse way to live than to live without change.
What if the earth or sun did not form?
The rocks and planets would be one giant storm.
What stories could we possibly tell,
If the phases of the moon did not swell.
Trust all would end as it should.
Amen.
