Clutch our chests and gasp in disbelief Squint our eyes to see, if we missed the fine print to small to read Check our pulses to see if our hearts still beat No help from anyone to help us understand This confusion, this abomination, never ending.. And as clouds darken, the asphalt swells, and as the clouds darken,the asphalt cracks The sky darkens one final time Gears cease turning, the machines malfunction.. What we deserve, what we deserve Our untimely end.
