текст песни Tomes On A Plane
There in an institution grand
Manifest by its proprietors
There within a sepulchre
Deemed a chamber mutual
Shelved are tomes on a plane
In splendid magnificence
As if to boast of lofty ideas
With distinguished titles too
Volume after volume arow
Side by side in uniformity
They command order there
The relics of great scholars
Yet within them, a farce
This commonly vacant room
A showpiece of humanity
Alas, in the stoic confines
Amid the mediocrities of man
A cascade of grandeur stands
Single-planed upon its walls
An illusion maintained still
But within these walls barren
That block out the world's age
And that hide away meek men
Are libraries for but a scene
In life's tragic production
