Eloy - Mysterious Monolith Lyrics

an awesome glow that shines through the sky
attracts me strongly like an obscure shrine.
strange magnetic object that i seek,
pulls me further up to its peak.

mysterious monolith, you hide the truth;
be my guiding light and be my proof.
tell your secrets, give me a sign;
disclose yourself, give me a sign.
mysterious monolith, you hide the truth;
be my guiding light and be my proof.
reveal all your treasuries;
give access to your memories.

there's no thought, unthought of;
there's no word, unspoken.
no wish, that hasn't been talked of;
there's no dream, undreamt of.
but still there is one question,
but still i see no future,
but still we hide in leisure
pretending we are pure.

you contain lights i dreamt of,
you hold the thoughts forgotten.
you clear up the skies
that seem dark and besotten.
you have the answer for
the meaning of our lives.
picture images
of an existence contrived.

we're lost in the labyrinths of
what seems to be and what is real. REAL
your old words of wisdom
though indistinct, still they are true. TRUE

mysterious monolith, you hide the truth;
be my guiding light and be my proof.
