Death In the Sky

Death in the sky Crash and burn like falling fireflies; From the skies come a sign to die, a lightning strike. It scares the children up here in the plane, oh no! But we know it can’t hurt us. Or can it? I don’t know. It crashes against us and lights up our night; It causes panic, it causes fright. It causes the plane to shake, just turbulence they say; But we don’t believe their stay calm warning, this is our judgment day. The end of our world, we are falling through the sky; I don’t want to die please, I want to learn to fly. I want to live forever, it can’t be my time already; I haven’t learned how to live life yet, I’m still not ready. Ascend into Heaven, screaming in the wind; It is your time to go stand with your King. (C)2016 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.
