Alexandria Burning

I feel the ignorance is triumphing all here lately
We're all just moving backwards
All for that sense of safety
I can't believe the mindset
Technology complacent
We're all such losers now
Good infrastructure's dying out

Because Alexandria is burning again
Human accomplishment seems to have lost its meaning
Because Alexandria is burning again
We've come so far just to lose our sense of being

The scientists today
They're trying to take God out of things
They'll burn the Notre Dame or bomb Saint Porphyrius
The nihilists will claim that there is nothing they can do
For when the sun inevitably will explode in 5 billion years

Because Alexandria is burning again
Human accomplishment seems to have lost its meaning
Because Alexandria is burning again
We've come so far just to lose our sense of being

Alexandria
It's burning
It's burning
It's burning
It's burning

Alexandria
It's burning
It's burning
It's burning
It's burning

Alexandria
It's burning
It's burning
It's burning
It's burning

Alexandria
It's burning
It's burning
It's burning
It's burning

Alexandria
It's burning
It's burning
It's burning
It's burning
