Lex Luthor on Why We Fall
It is not important that we climb mountains;
it's that some fall. This was human
evolution before the alien came
to save us from it.
When we fall, he's there to catch us.
And I'm the villain? I'm the only savior.
I don't wear an S to proclaim it,
besides, it would clash with my Armani.
The public are grazing cattle. They believe
he's the best of them. He's Pinocchio,
not a man at all. I dream of bodies
in free fall under a red sun.
