Now They Are Gone

Extinction is the end of something that used to be alive
Now it is forever gone and cannot be revived
Mastodons, dodo birds and dinosaurs once were
Now they’re just a memory, a fossil or a blur
Will mankind be the next in line of things that used to be
Or will we all be saved in time by something we can’t see
