| | | Artist: | RUSH |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Hemispheres II. Apollo / Dionysus | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 118 | | | | Lyrics: | 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.
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. | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
