Words by Neil Peart, Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson I. Prelude When our weary world was young The struggle of the ancients first began The gods of Love and Reason Sought alone to rule the fate of Man They battled through the ages But still neither force would yield The people were divided Every soul a battlefield ... II. Apollo: Bringer of Wisdom 'I bring Truth and Understanding I bring Wit, and Wisdom fair Precious gifts beyond compare We can build a world of wonder I can make you all aware' 'I will find you food and shelter Show you fire to keep you warm Through the endless winter storm You can live in grace and comfort In the world that you transform' The people were delighted Coming forth to claim their prize They ran to build their cities And converse among the wise But one day the streets fell silent Yet they knew not what was wrong The urge to build these fine things Seemed not to be so strong The wise men were consulted And the Bridge of Death was crossed In quest of Dionysus To find out what they had lost ... III. Dionysus: Bringer of Love 'I bring Love to give you solace In the darkness of the night In the Heart's eternal light You need only trust your feelings Only Love can steer you right' 'I bring laughter, I bring music I bring joy and I bring tears I will soothe your primal fears Throw off those chains of reason And your prison disappears' The cities were abandoned And the forests echoed song They danced and lived as brothers They knew love could not be wrong Food and wine they had aplenty And they slept beneath the stars The people were contented And the Gods watched from afar But the winter fell upon them And it caught them unprepared Bringing wolves and cold starvation And the hearts of men despaired ...
