Between the blurry lines
Of all that is and all that was
I stood in silence just because.

And as I grew to know the sound
The silence made
The world rebound.

Everything falls and turns away
An end of an era
But yet we stay.

The earth is quiet now
Calm before the plight
Get ready now
It's coming
The clock is signaling our final fight.
