They Didn'T Make It
The fight was beyond winning
The fall was beyond rescue
The dive was beyond swimming
Thing is, an old start needs no cue
Neither does a new end that’s not new
Time was mocking time, how?
Our time, the minutes left, only a few
While others time was on the go
Who knew what is, is actually so?
Deluded into thinking about the future
Never thought about tomorrow
Humanity can’t fight the force of nature
One too many eclipse’s for us finely permanently put night before day
Erased the clarity of light and invited the obscurity of darkness to stay
