The End of Time

Looking down from way up here
to that revolving globe down there
it seems to swirl itself around
having such flaming colours so rare

Wonder what’s living in that ball
heard once about something human
were found on one of these planets
even thinking about being a free man

Once heard that God created humans
but not all of them really liked it
maybe this why it’s all burning up
He’s punishing them for they’re split

Makes you think serious about life
this God’s supposed to love this lot
but if His love is spurned out
then His patience is finally shot

The end of time looks to be here
for that revolving globe of fire
wonder if any have escaped
maybe end up somewhere else!


(An alien looking down on earth on it's final day of time.)
