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
