new single: the demise
Thought it was safe
I was in the clear
No reason to lie
Or have any fear
I heard a sound
And looked around
To find myself
Surrounded by
The darkest cloud.
The trees were falling
All over the place
Birds were flying
Stuck in a race
The road was winding
Bells were chiming
Lights went up
We came to a stop
And there it was.
The planet moaned
And shook the ground
Words were spoken
Faults were found
So many doubts
To cast about
You couldn’t believe
Such a sham
But such a relief.
The paint came off
The whole thing crumbled
My breath was gone
And then I stumbled
That was all
I had to fall
I closed my eyes
We heard the call
Our sweet demise.
