On the Verge of the Shatter

Something is in the air....

Something is off, can’t you tell?

The state of things just isn’t quite right

You can sense it in the air

Like your focus is just out of sight

There is a common thread with most people

That go on trying to live through their day

If you were to stop them to ask what’s wrong

They wouldn’t know just quite what to say

It’s almost as if we are expecting

Something to come across the horizon

Something spectacular or incredibly horrific

We all stand in wait with our wits on

Is something changing our world

Or has it always been as crazy like this?

The world as it is seems to spiral on downward

And we are all ignorant in our bliss

I can’t help but sit back and wonder

When the time comes will it be a true shock

That whatever is happening amongst us all

Would send us scattering for cover under a rock

We will pay for our love of ourselves

Thinking we are too intelligent to see anything else

What will ultimately deliver us unto our fate

May bring a final and excruciating farewell
