I heard the conspiracy theories
The apocalypse is oncoming, a warning
They said 2000 then 2012
Yet the universe remains with an insistent earth
Somewhere along that line, falling for you
Blessed from the highs, blissed to be of youth
Thriving and striving to be set in stone
That, I never doubted until I smelt the smoke
I survived but my world died
I survived but my world died
It burned right before my eyes
I survived but my world died
It reached for my hand
But I couldn't understand it in time
It burned alive and it made no noise, ever-poised
But in flashes I hear screaming one could only memorise
It was choking up blood I fell into with a thud
Like tar, just like mud, so I had to give it up
My body fought for life
When it was finalised
And everything died
