Spinning Ball Of Hell
I had a dream no land was green
And the world went up in flames
People were running everywhere
Their screams drowned out their names
Ashes rained like tornadic snow
Smoke blocked out the sun
The smell of burnt hope filled the air
And there was nowhere to run
I dreamed I stood and watched it all
In terror from afar
As though suspended in the air
Or swinging from a star
I tried to warn the populace
When the grass and trees turned brown
But nobody would listen
And just one spark brought them down
I saw the children's tear-streaked faces,
Heard their wails amidst the roar,
Watched as elders fell before me,
Couldn't bear it anymore.
I screamed into the void above,
My voice lost in the din,
Prayed for rain to quench the fire,
To wash away the sin.
I woke up still crying
Because I'd watched the whole world die
And I just couldn't…
