The jukebox plays an oldie Everyone is drunk But they all know the words If they don't know his name This, is fame A memory, one day lost Think of Alexandria Now nothing Once so great Or deities lost to history That is the path we all take We are born, we exist Maybe even live We die, and are forgotten There is no hereafter No pearly gates No endless fire Birth, existence Then we expire This is humanity

Humanity
