12. ALEXANDRIA<br />
My banjo's in the pawnshop<br />
the phone is finally cut off<br />
the children who were never ours<br />
are finally grown up<br />
The fuzzy lines in blue<br />
we drew around maps of the world<br />
North faces ,polar bears and penguins<br />
great expectations of our youth<br />
If it's not to be today<br />
then it'll be tomorrow<br />
We have every frame of reference ever known<br />
Unlocked the secrets of Alexandria not so long ago<br />
The lighthouse and the library<br />
Millions of books we haven't read<br />
We're post the big extinction<br />
It hurts to be human evolution<br />
The unknown heroine sings a ballad and<br />
is hard to see<br />
in a life sequestered from his story<br />
The armies just beyond the lawn<br />
the apples falling.
