1
When all the world was very young
2
And mountain magic heavy hung
3
The supermen would walk in file
4
Guardians of a loveless isle
5
And gloomy browed with super-fear
6
Their tragic endless lives
7
Could heave nor sigh in solemn, perverse serenity
8
Wondrous beings chained to life
9
Strange games they would play then
10
No death for the perfect men
11
Life rolls into one for them
12
So softly a super-god cries
13
Where all were minds in uni-thought
14
Powers weird by mystics taught
15
No pain, no joy, no power too great
16
Colossal strength to grasp a fate
17
Where sad-eyed mermen tossed in slumbers
18
Nightmare dreams no mortal mind could hold
19
A man would tear his brother's flesh
20
A chance to die to turn to mold
21
Far out in the red sky
22
Far out from the sad eyes
23
Strange, mad celebration
24
So softly a super-god cries
25
Far out in the red sky
26
Far out from the sad eyes
27
Strange, mad celebration
28
So softly a super-god dies
