How Do You See The End of the World?


How do you see the end of the world?
Do you see fire and brimstone?
Do the seas boil, and skies fall?
Or do you see nothing at all?

How do you see the end of the world?
Do you see death and disease?
Are the streets filled with dead bodies high?
Does the rotted stench drift in the sky?

How do you see the end of the world?
Do you see rockets and war?
Are the soldiers confident and fast?
Before they all breathe their last?

And when do you see the end of the world?
Will it be anytime soon?
Either this year or next on a Christmas day?
When all hopes and fears are banished away?

You. How do you see the end of the world?
And do you think it really matters?
To worry about all the things people say?
When we'll all be dead anyway?
