[00:00.00][I. Prelude]
[02:59.17]When our weary world was young
[03:02.21]The struggle of the ancients first began
[03:06.48]The gods of love and reason
[03:09.26]Sought alone to rule the fate of man
[03:20.23]They battled through the ages
[03:23.63]But still neither force would yield
[03:27.07]The people were divided
[03:29.86]Every soul a battlefield
[03:33.29]Every soul a battlefield
[04:24.85][II. Apollo / Dionysus]
[04:27.85][Apollo: Bringer Of Wisdom]
[04:36.36]'I bring truth and understanding
[04:39.25]I bring wit and wisdom fair
[04:42.05]Precious gifts beyond compare
[04:52.43]We can build a world of wonder
[04:55.47]I can make you all aware
[04:58.99]I will find you food and shelter
[05:02.18]Show you fire to keep you warm
[05:05.23]Through the endless winter storm
[05:16.09]You can live in grace and comfort
[05:18.78]In the world that you transform'
[05:38.56]The people were delighted
[05:41.19]Coming forth to claim their prize
[05:45.81]They ran to build their cities
[05:48.76]And converse among the wise
[05:52.55]But one day the streets fell silent
[05:55.48]Yet they knew not what was wrong
[05:59.33]The urge to build these fine things
[06:03.24]Seemed not to be so strong
[06:06.84]The wise men were consulted
[06:09.92]And the Bridge of Death was crossed
[06:13.45]In quest of Dionysus
[06:16.66]To find out what they had lost
[06:58.01][Dionysus: Bringer Of Love]
[07:05.96]'I bring love to give you solace
[07:08.54]In the darkness of the night
[07:11.58]In the Heart's eternal light
[07:21.54]You need only trust your feelings
[07:25.19]Only love can steer you right
[07:28.68]I bring laughter, I bring music
[07:31.87]I bring joy and I bring tears
[07:34.90]I will soothe your primal fears
[07:45.69]Throw off those chains of reason
[07:48.62]And your prison disappears'
[08:08.28]The cities were abandoned
[08:10.96]And the forests echoed song
[08:14.93]They danced and lived as brothers
[08:18.51]They knew love could not be wrong
[08:22.66]Food and wine they had aplenty
[08:25.44]And they slept beneath the stars
[08:29.13]The people were contented
[08:33.09]And the gods watched from afar
[08:36.83]But the winter fell upon them
[08:39.82]And it caught them unprepared
[08:43.52]Bringing wolves and cold starvation
[08:46.96]And the hearts of men despaired
[09:46.25][III. Armageddon: The Battle Of Heart and Mind]
[09:53.80]The universe divided
[09:55.67]As the heart and mind collided
[09:57.74]With the people left unguided
[09:59.82]For so many troubled years
[10:02.00]In a cloud of doubts and fears
[10:04.13]Their world was torn asunder into hollow
[10:08.07]Hemispheres
[10:20.56]Some fought themselves, some fought each other
[10:23.04]Most just followed one another
[10:25.06]Lost and aimless like their brothers
[10:27.20]For their hearts were so unclear
[10:29.52]And the truth could not appear
[10:31.36]Their spirits were divided into blinded
[10:35.07]Hemispheres
[10:56.25]Some who did not fight
[10:58.90]Brought tales of old to light
[11:04.59]'My Rocinante sailed by night
[11:08.17]On her final flight'
[11:12.52]To the heart of Cygnus' fearsome force
[11:16.52]We set our course
[11:20.79]Spiralled through that timeless space
[11:24.59]To this immortal place
[11:59.73][IV. Cygnus: Bringer Of Balance]
[12:44.59]I have memory and awareness
[12:48.73]But I have no shape or form
[12:53.84]As a disembodied spirit
[12:58.00]I am dead and yet unborn
[13:03.86]I have passed into Olympus
[13:07.40]As was told in tales of old
[13:11.95]To the city of Immortals
[13:15.90]Marble white and purest gold...
[14:05.90]I see the gods in battle rage on high...
[14:12.97]Thunderbolts across the sky...
[14:18.59]I cannot move, I cannot hide...
[14:24.87]I feel a silent scream begin inside...
[14:34.83]Then all at once the chaos ceased
[14:38.13]A stillness fell, a sudden peace
[14:41.52]The warriors felt my silent cry
[14:44.85]And stayed their struggle, mystified
[14:51.72]Apollo was atonished
[14:54.66]Dionysus thought me mad
[14:58.50]But they heard my story further
[15:02.28]And they wondered, and were sad
[15:06.94]Looking down from Olympus
[15:10.09]On a world of doubt and fear
[15:15.91]Its surface splintered
[15:17.86]Into sorry Hemispheres
[15:37.96]They sat a while in silence
[15:41.40]Then they turned at last to me
[15:44.74]'We will call you Cygnus
[15:47.73]The god of Balance you shall be'
[16:53.28][V. The Sphere: A Kind Of Dream]
[17:02.64]We can walk our road together
[17:07.87]If our goals are all the same
[17:13.68]We can run alone and free
[17:19.01]If we pursue a different aim
[17:24.73]Let the truth of love be lighted
[17:30.25]Let the love of truth shine clear
[17:35.12]Sensibility
[17:38.01]Armed with sense and liberty
[17:41.34]With the heart and mind united in a single
[17:47.59]Perfect
[17:50.24]Sphere
