Alexandria Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Exiro 

Cover art for Alexandria lyrics by Kamelot

"far across the sea a piece of history in Egypt's land"

"I raise the seventh wonder to delight Poseidon"

Something's not right here...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lighthouse_of_Alexandria Looks right... Or what am I missing?

Alexander the Great was a Greek conqueror. If you're saying the "something wrong" is referring to Alexandria being "to delight Poseidon" despite being "in Egypt," well, there's nothing wrong there. Delighting Poseidon would be a reference to the Greek culture/religion of Alexander and his people, since he was the one who founded the city, and has nothing to do with the religion of the ancient Egyptians.
