Arecibo

Each and every time I’d found my way Mistaken, misdirected (it hides remote) Off course and led astray (it slowly slips away) Repeating, endless white world, sterility displayed Over and over on replay The coda far away The coda far away Preparing a transmission—a signal sent in vain Misread the signs—a warning or way out of this place? Can altering time lead me to what I desire? I’m crying out—falling backwards through space-time! Backwards through space-time I’ll send out a Signal! (It’s heard throughout space) The message is simple... (My Arecibo!) I’ll send out a Signal! (It’s heard throughout space) The message is simple... (My Arecibo!) “Where is he? I can no longer hear… Where is he? The Signal’s left me!” Into the fray—into the endless white! Have I stumbled further from what I’m seeking? A signal was all that I’d need Or so I thought when I still believed in The purpose that was guiding me I’ll travel far and wide Endlessly through the white! I’ll send out a Signal! (It’s heard throughout space) The message is simple... (My Arecibo!) I’ll send out a Signal! (Sending signals) Through space-time they’ll hear my cry—my Arecibo! Test minus 5, 4, 3, 2, 1... Let's go! Drifting off into space—gotta say—feeling fine It’s getting cold, but I know that one day I will find A better life, a better way, another chance, another time! Drifting off into space and I know that I’ll find… I’ll send out a Signal! (It’s heard throughout space) The message is simple... (My Arecibo!) I’ll send out a Signal! (Sending signals) Through space-time they’ll hear my cry—my Arecibo! I’ll send a Signal through space-time The universe will hear my cry Spacelog.0245 “It’s been a while—it’s been a time—it’s been a God damn ride Spacelog.0245, signing off Goodbye... Wanting and waiting For so long I’ve been praying For the day that I’d find what I seek It escaped me This can’t be the end. No, I won’t let it be! The Signal I heard is just the first of many! Spacelog.0245, signing off! Goodbye Spacelog, listen to me Hear what I have to say, intently Someone, please listen to me! Goodbye (Wanting) Bye (And waiting) For so long I have been praying Spacelog.0245 signing off Good... Goodbye!
