I strongly believe that the phaser used is the Mu-tron

Bi-phase. They've used it before and mine can mimic

this sound exactly. For those who have one, here's my

settings:

Phasor A only, Sweep: just below 2, Depth: 7, Feedback: 7.5

*4 ("Breathing Underwater....")

of fresh faced youth

no one will come

to save you

so speak your peace

in the murmurs drawn

but youth is wasted

on the young

your weakness my hate

my love for you just can't explain

why

we're forever frozen

forever beautiful

forever lost inside ourselves
