The End

We are waiting and praying
Hoping that it won't happen
But it was seen so long ago
The date when common sense died
The lunatics became the leaders
And talking no longer worked
All it took was one wrong word
The flexing of a muscle too many
Just one finger on one button, and it was over
The daylight disappeared in a moment
Nighttime's green glow became our only fate
And the sounds of life could no longer be heard
Sadly, there is no more to say
The story ended just as predicted
Once again, God’s planet is just a rock
And that is what we deserve
