Alexandria
The rain don't bother me, I soak in myself
As my old convictions slowly wash away
But I won't need a friend to hold up the sale
Of my dignity, I stand by my ways
The sky is raining down with shame, I hear
The voices of the past come for me
I break off another piece of my distilled pride
And serve it to you cold, my darling
Oh oh, you did enough
Your reward was a heart full of pain
Hey oh, you've had it rough
But you're not tough enough to make me stay
Alexandria, oh oh oh Alexandria
Alexandria, oh oh oh Alexandria
Your iron wall rises high in the clouds
And I can't break a single beam
It snaps my arm into fragments of your soul
It bears the weight we left in-between
Oh oh, you did enough
Your reward was a heart full of pain
Hey oh, you've had it rough
But you're not tough enough to make me stay
Alexandria, oh oh oh Alexandria
Alexandria, oh oh oh Alexandria
The sky is raining down with shame, I hear
Your voice, it echoes through this empty air
So break off another piece of your distilled pride
And serve it to me cold, my dear
Oh oh, you did enough
Your reward was a heart full of pain
Hey oh, you've had it rough
But you're not tough enough to make me stay
Alexandria, oh oh oh Alexandria
Alexandria, oh oh oh Alexandria
Alexandria, oh Alexandria
Oh Alexandria, Alexandria
Alexandria, Alexandria
Alexandria, Alexandria
Alexandria
As my old convictions slowly wash away
But I won't need a friend to hold up the sale
Of my dignity, I stand by my ways
The sky is raining down with shame, I hear
The voices of the past come for me
I break off another piece of my distilled pride
And serve it to you cold, my darling
Oh oh, you did enough
Your reward was a heart full of pain
Hey oh, you've had it rough
But you're not tough enough to make me stay
Alexandria, oh oh oh Alexandria
Alexandria, oh oh oh Alexandria
Your iron wall rises high in the clouds
And I can't break a single beam
It snaps my arm into fragments of your soul
It bears the weight we left in-between
Oh oh, you did enough
Your reward was a heart full of pain
Hey oh, you've had it rough
But you're not tough enough to make me stay
Alexandria, oh oh oh Alexandria
Alexandria, oh oh oh Alexandria
The sky is raining down with shame, I hear
Your voice, it echoes through this empty air
So break off another piece of your distilled pride
And serve it to me cold, my dear
Oh oh, you did enough
Your reward was a heart full of pain
Hey oh, you've had it rough
But you're not tough enough to make me stay
Alexandria, oh oh oh Alexandria
Alexandria, oh oh oh Alexandria
Alexandria, oh Alexandria
Oh Alexandria, Alexandria
Alexandria, Alexandria
Alexandria, Alexandria
Alexandria
