Library of Alexandria lyrics
by Janani K. Jha
[Verse 1]
We'll never see the Library of Alexandria
(Before everything burned)
You know, there was a temple
A golden monument to Zeus, lost in Olympia
(They don't know what for)
[Verse 2]
Each of the seven ancient wonders have gone under
Lost to thunder, simply plundered
Nothing left but bones and dust
Leagues of ambitious men of riches
Lie in ditches next to ruins
That they wished would keep their legaciеs from rust
[Verse 3]
I have spent my life with a chisеl
Trying to chip away, trying to change up fate
Make a name, it would all look the same
When it came (down)
I was always taught to not give up
That I fight the tide when it's getting high
I'm getting tired, no one bats an eye if I (drown)
[Outro]
I don't want a masterpiece, I just want to be enough for me
I don't want a masterpiece, I just want to be enough for me
I don't want a masterpiece, I just want to be enough for me
I don't want a masterpiece, I just want to be enough for me
