I.
our weary world was young
The struggle of the first began
The of love and reason
Sought to rule the fate of man

They battled the ages
But still neither force would
The were divided
Every a battlefield
Every a battlefield

II. Bringer of Wisdom
'i truth and understanding
I bring wit, and wisdom
gifts beyond compare
We can build a of wonder
I can make you all

'I will you food and shelter
Show you fire to keep you
the endless winter storm
You can live in and comfort
In the that you transform'

The people were
Coming forth to claim their
They ran to build cities
And among the wise

But one day the streets silent
Yet they not what was wrong
The urge to these fine things
Seemed not to be so

The wise men consulted
And the bridge of was crossed
In of Dionysus
To out what they had lost ...

III. Dionysus: of Love
'I bring love to give you
In the of the night
In the heart's light
You only trust your feelings
love can steer you right'

'I bring laughter, I bring
I bring joy and I tears
I will soothe your primal
Throw off those of reason
And your prison

The cities were
And the echoed song
They danced and lived as
knew love could not be wrong

Food and wine had aplenty
And they slept the stars
The people contented
And the gods watched from

But the fell upon them
And it caught unprepared
Bringing wolves and starvation
And the of men despaired ...

IV. Armageddon: The Battle of and Mind
The divided
As the heart and mind
With the people unguided
For so many troubled
In a cloud of doubts and
Their world was asunder
Into hemispheres

Some fought themselves, some fought other
Most just followed one
Lost and aimless like brothers
For their hearts were so
And the could not appear
spirits were divided
Into hemispheres

who did not fight
Brought tales of old to
My 'Rocinante' by night
On her flight

To the of Cygnus' fearsome force
We set our
through that timeless space
To immortal place

V. Cygnus: bringer of
I have memory and
But I no shape or form
As a spirit
I am dead and yet
I have passed Olympus
As was in tales of old
To the city of
Marble and purest gold

I see the in battle rage on high
across the sky
I move, I cannot hide
I feel a silent scream inside

Then all at once the ceased
A stillness fell, a peace
The felt my silent cry
And stayed their struggle,

Apollo was
thought me mad
But they heard my further
And they wondered, and sad

down from Olympus
On a world of doubt and
Its splintered
Into sorry

They sat a while in
Then they turned at to me
'we call you Cygnus,
The God of you shall be'

The sphere: a of dream
We can walk our together
If our are all the same
We can run and free
If we a different aim

Let the of love be lighted
Let the love of truth shine

Armed with and liberty
the heart and mind united
In a single sphere
