Ever wonder how life ends
and if its ever enough
to live it right making amends
even when life gets tough.

As Death approaches soaring higher
I only have a couple minutes left
my incoherent thoughts going haywire
how many will this disaster effect
as I start to run the light grows brighter.

Moving as fast as i can trying to stay aware
as I run through these empty streets
I suddenly feel a push of cold air
making it hard to hear past my own heart beats
as the wind picks up speed I start to feel despair  

Just wanting to make it to where I belong
surrounded by those I love
but i can no longer bear it, the wind is just too strong
the light now growing brighter and more intense above
now knowing i haven't got long

Fear begins to overpower me
and i feel its close to the end  
So I shut my eyes not wanting to see
and tell myself its all fake, just pretend

I stop thinking and shut off my mind
letting all of my feelings go
hoping that god knows i tried
but none of it mattered as the sky began to glow
then came the blow and in the end we all died...
This was inspired by a dream that felt so real. That even after waking up and knowing it was just a dream i still felt the hopelessness and the feeling that death can take you whenever it wants.
