Monolith

See my silhouette approaching
Casting shadows on your ocean
One day you should tell of it
You are the life form I have chosen
See my ship in hieroglyphic
Hammer chiselling prolific
Frozen stiff your arm is poking up towards the Monolith
Tracking as the boundary pushes out beyond your nearest star
All the wisdom of your solar system only goes so far
Put your mark into the granite
Tell of how we all began it
For the benefit of man
Wrap yourself around the planets
Dominator forcing life out of your incubator
Now you're pooling your resources as you share collected data
Humanity a spectacular test - what will become of you?
Surrender to a different gravity, let's see what you can do
Behold!  I have been watching, since I left, now you have been told
I don't know what will happen, this experiment is uncontrolled
Keep sending the signal, there's an answer if you have the gift
How else will you crawl out of this world inside my petri dish?
Jeopardy should not prevent you tinkering incessantly
For you have the propensity for true machine telepathy
With your atomic energy you should be no longer static
You have the technology, by now you should be automatic
Your tendency to be erratic with intensity
Will help you see the universe in all of its immensity
I'll be your spirit guide, It's good to be alive
Hit the switch and then apply death drive override
See my silhouette approaching
Casting shadows on your ocean
One day you should tell of it
You are the life form I have chosen
See my ship in hieroglyphic
Hammer chiselling prolific
Frozen stiff your arm is poking up towards the Monolith
Tracking as the boundary pushes out beyond your nearest star
All the wisdom of your solar system only goes so far
Put your mark into the granite
Tell of how we all began it
For the benefit of man
Wrap yourself around the planets
