Moon-Watcher

Star gazing, not knowing the fate for all his kind
Stand taller Moonwatcher, your greatness soon will shine

Eons away from when the towering lizards roamed
Creatures mammalian were born and arose
Crude forms and simple minds of simian design
Shadowing the blueprints for humankind

Shining at a distance in the Moonwatcher's eyes
Is the spark that lit the wildfire within our minds
Fighting just to stay alive in the only world he knows
Barely taking notice of a strange crystal stone

Star gazing, not knowing the fate for all his kind
Not caring, still staring up at the sky
Stand taller Moonwatcher, your greatness soon will shine
They’re watching and guiding you from inside

You’re getting closer now
You’re learning, though you’re not sure how
You’re understanding now
You’re growing, let us show you how

Monolithic forms arrive from far across the sky
Searching for that missing link to propagate new life
Seeing the potential in this primitive frame
They shaped the mold, began to sculpt his DNA
